Completion by Program
This report displays a Tech computed ‘Graduation Rate’ by program for each technical college and for the System, and allows the user to select cohort years, as well as selected student demographic categories to include registration status, financial assistance, enrollment status, ‘new to program’, program, and graduation category. The analysis is based on a System defined graduation rate to determine if the student received an award in subsequent terms of the cohort three year period. (Note: This is different from IPEDS GRS logic in that it ignores the 150% rule and incorporates awards received any time during the three year period.) Two user selections identify students who graduated from the original program and students who graduated from a different program. Once a student has been identified as having graduated from an original program, the indicator is set and requires no future analysis in that original program takes precedent over subsequent awards. ‘New to program’ represents students enrolled in the respective cohort and program who were not enrolled in that program in the previous fall or spring term. If not enrolled in the previous fall or spring term in that program, but enrolled in that program in the summer term prior to fall, student will be considered ‘new to program’. Certificate programs are unique to each college.

National, SREB, and System Graduation Rates
In this national reporting series (IPEDS GRS), data are collected on the number of students entering the institution as full-time, first-time, degree/certificate-seeking undergraduate students in a particular year (cohort), by race/ethnicity and gender; the number completing their program within 150 percent of normal time to completion; and the number that transfer to other institutions if transfer is part of the institution’s mission. This dashboard displays the graduation rate statistic. The reporting of national and regional data comes from Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), which uses its own national formula for reporting two-year colleges (thus the reported percentage differs slightly from NCES’ publications). SREB’s data reporting lags approximately one year behind the completed cohort term. For example, the 2007 – 2010 graduation rates should be available in September 2011.

Number Completers and Awards
The report displays the number of awards which include students who may have received more than one formal award between the following dates: July 1, 20XX and June 30, 20XX+1.
|
|
Regional & System Progression Rates
In this reporting series, the student progression rate includes completers, those still enrolled and transfers from the cohort within 150 percent of normal time. Members of the initial cohort who are deceased, totally and permanently disabled, left school to serve in the armed forces or the federal foreign aid service such as the Peace Corps, or who left school to serve on an official church mission are subtracted from the cohort before percentages are calculated. For example for the 2001 cohort (2001-2004), students who were full-time, first-time, degree seeking students in fall 2001 are included in the denominator. Students who completed programs within 150% of program length, students who transferred to other post-secondary institutions through summer 2004, and those still enrolled as of fall 2004 are included in the numerator.

Developmental Education First-time Freshmen
This dashboard is a measure of the percentage of first-time freshman students (including non-degree-seeking students) taking one or more developmental education courses. The number and percentage of developmental education students is based on first-time freshmen students having taken one or more MAT, ENG, ESL, or RDG courses with a course number of less than 100. The percentage computation is calculated as [first-time freshmen having taken one or more developmental courses] / [total first-time freshmen]. Analysis is for Opening Fall headcount.

Licensure Pass Rates
This dashboard displays the percentage of students passing licensure exams. The college data are taken from the CHE Institutional Effectiveness Reports due in August of each year. The pass rate is based on exams taken between April 1st to March 31st. National data are included where available, but are based on the calendar year from January 1st to December 31st of the prior year. Example: A national report range selection of 2011-2012 would be equivalent to exams taken between; January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011. A pass rate is considered “unknown” when the percent passed and the number tested are both zero (0). This may indicate there are no test takers for that year or the program has been discontinued.
