Question:
A researcher is looking to know how many people with Law degrees there are in the Ottawa-Gatineau CMAs and where these might fall in the hierarchy of Highest certificate, diploma or degree achieved (specifically, Bachelor’s / Master’s / Doctorate) for the 2016 census.
I think I have found the right Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) to get the required breakdown (under “22. Legal professions and studies”), but I am currently unsure how to cross-tabulate these for the specified region.
Might this require a custom tabulation? Any help is appreciated!
Answer:
“You can use this table (98-400-X2016241): Highest Certificate, Diploma or Degree (15), Major Field of Study - Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) 2016 (82), Age (9) and Sex (3) for the Population Aged 15 Years and Over in Private Households of Canada, Provinces and Territories, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations, 2016 Census - 25% Sample Data
Highest Certificate, Diploma or Degree (15), Major Field of Study - Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) 2016 (82), Age (9) and Sex (3) for the Population Aged 15 Years and Over in Private Households of Canada, Provinces and Territories, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations, 2016 Census - 25% Sample Data
From the dropdown menu for ‘Major field of study - Classification of Instructional Programs’, select 22. Legal professions and studies and change ‘Geography’ to ‘Ottawa-Gatineau’ to view the data on the web.
You can also download the whole table in .csv and use filter or download the beyond 20/20 format and change the dimensions of the variables you want to display.”
