About this data:

E3 Alliance relies primarily on data from the University of Texas Education Research Center (ERC). This data allows for a year-by-year understanding of the school to workforce pipeline based on where and when a student graduates from high school. Secondary data pertains to high school graduates from within the state of Texas, and postsecondary enrollment data pertains to those who enroll in Texas postsecondary institutions.
