- 908B64B197 6y agoAhh I didn't realize. I assumed it was professions that have a licensing requirement where you must have a specific degree (like having an MD to practice medicine) vs some areas of finances where you don't need a particular diploma to pass the required SEC exams or certifications.
- smnrchrds 6y agoI have not read the full methodology. But if I were to make an educated guess, I would say they used NOC (National Occupation Code) for determining what does or does not require a degree. NOC divides all occupations into 4 skill levels, from A (occupations that usually require university education) to D (occupations that usually do not require even a secondary school diploma). Most probably, they used the same framework and tallied the number of people in engineering, other A level occupations, and everyone else. Finance and consulting are definitely A level. https://noc.esdc.gc.ca/Structure/NocProfile/36841eebd34e457e9ed5a16fda9145e9?objectid=uSzBscPUpnD%2FtIHmYZbYdC7VIbH9efXmkHNhOllqcTPi90qqDDAgavVV1ws4JDVW4p50puJD2UaF7d8B6YVfSXbb2pWkDSIFR%2FcMldBT6Rs%3D https://noc.esdc.gc.ca/Structure/NocProfile/36841eebd34e457e... https://noc.esdc.gc.ca/Structure/NocProfile/f9c47da9dd2644f399e41adcc0635961?objectid=hTVs7PvQQWa2ZOTc%2B2HYbbREtRxtS7KPIZw16ilnuu4ktymb2AKZjmbap%2FFvDdmT https://noc.esdc.gc.ca/Structure/NocProfile/f9c47da9dd2644f3...
