The chart below shows the different levels of post-school qualifications in Australia and the proportion of men and women who held them in 1999. v. 3
The illustration compares the post-school qualifications of Australian male and female in 1999. As is observed, more female's highest educational qualification was undergraduate diploma and bachelor degree while male outnumbered female in higher qualification levels and skilled education.
According to the chart, almost 90% of males had a skilled vocational diploma, while only approximately 10% of females had the same qualifications. Nearly 70% of women's highest qualification was an undergraduate diploma, and this ratio is more than twice than that of males. In terms of males and females whose highest education was a bachelor degree, females were slightly ahead of male with a ratio of 50%. But if we consider the females and males who had obtained post-graduation degrees, males were well ahead of females. 70% of post-graduate diplomas were completed by males and 60% master's degree was completed by females. On the contrary, only 30% of women finished a post-graduate diploma and four out of ten master's degree holders were females.
