Abstract

The Class of ′71 is a longitudinal study following the educational and career paths of a group of Australians over the years from secondary school to mid-adulthood.

In Part 1, which appeared in the Spring 1995 edition of this journal, factors associated with career outcomes, measured 20 years after secondary school, were detailed. In this article, findings that relate to intergenerational mobility, the association of unemployment with career outcomes, the match between occupational aspirations and achievements, and factors the respondents believed were influential regarding career outcomes are reported.
