Adults are three times less likely to be on the dole if they go to college, a study has found.
Pollsters quizzed 4,837 adults who finished a college course in England for the Learning and Skills Council, a quango responsible for further education.
More than a quarter – 28% – said they had received jobseeker's allowance just before they started their courses in 2005.
