The Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education (DLHE) survey is a survey of graduates from Higher Education (HE). It is investigates the early career patterns of HE graduates. The survey is conducted in two parts. The first stage, or early survey, asks all leavers what they are doing six months after they qualified from their HE course. It is carried out by HE institutions, which try to contact all recent leavers six months after leaving, and the data collected by institutions is returned to HESA. This data is used to prepare statistics about the destinations of qualifiers by institution. The second stage, or longitudinal survey, to which these frequently asked questions relate, is a follow-up survey that looks at the destinations of leavers up to three and a half years after they qualified. This second stage will survey a sample of those who completed the first stage survey. The first full-scale longitudinal survey was of alumni who left in 2002/03 and took place in winter 2006/07.
