The charts below show the main reasons for study among students of different age groups and the amount of support received from employers.

The provided information is based on two bar charts that depict the reasons why employees pursue studying and the possibilities of employers offering assistance to students, categorized by five

age

groups. The analysis reveals distinct patterns among different

age

groups in terms of motivations and

employer

support. For individuals under 26

years

old, career development serves as the primary motivation for studying, with 80% of

this

age

group

driven by

this

goal.

In contrast

, only a small portion, approximately one-tenth, pursues studies out of personal interest. As employees

age

, their motivations shift, and learners over 49

years

old are predominantly motivated by personal interests rather than career goals. Interestingly, individuals in their forties exhibit an equal balance between career-focused and interest-based motivations, both accounting for 40% of

this

age

group

.

On the other hand

, learners over 49

years

old heavily prioritize interest-based learning, representing 70% of

this

age

group

,

while

job-oriented students make up around one-fifth. Regarding

employer

support, the charts indicate that individuals under 26 and between 26 and 29

years

old have the highest likelihood of receiving assistance from their bosses, with rates of 60% and 50% respectively.

In contrast

, those in their 30s have the lowest chance of

employer

support, standing at 30%.

However

, there is an upward trend in

employer

assistance for students in their 40s, with the eldest

age

group

reaching 30% and 40% respectively.
