Graduation and Employment Chart
Per ACCSC, the Graduation and Employment Chart must be submitted for each approved program with separate charts for differing normal lengths of completion, i.e., full-time, part-time, day, evening, etc. A separate G&E Chart must also be submitted for programs that are offered 100% Distance Education or if more than 50% of the program is offered at a satellite location. For programs with multiple lengths, schools should submit a separate Graduation and Employment Chart for each version of the program (e.g., two G&E Charts for a program with an 8-month version and a 12-month version) and one Program Enrollment Summary combining the numbers from each version. When calculating the cohort reporting period Beginning and Ending Dates for each G&E, please use the chart at the end of this section. The reporting period used to complete the Graduation and Employment Chart is determined by taking the program’s normal length of completion (including vacations and holidays rounded to the nearest whole number) in months multiplied by 150 percent and adding three (3) months for employment. From the Report Date of July 2018, we count back the number of months (program length in months x 150% + 3 months) to establish the Ending Date of a reporting period. From the Ending Date, we count back an additional twelve (12) months to determine the Beginning Date of the reporting period. To convert the program length in weeks to months, divide the number of weeks (including holidays and breaks) by 4.34 and round up to the nearest whole number.
Class Start Date (month/year): Determined by the program length in months; lists the month and year of each month within the range being reported on per the beginning and ending of the 12 Month Reporting Period. Ex. Beginning Reporting Period is Sept 2015, Ending Reporting Period is Aug 2016;
Number Started: Per the ACCSC G&E Glossary; Students are considered to have been in attendance for reporting purposes (Start) if, as a result of their attendance, they incur a tuition/fee or other financial obligation as specified by the institution’s refund policy. Fees or other obligations (i.e., uniforms, tools, etc.) are only those associated with actual attendance; not those considered part of the application for admission or enrollment process. In any event, any student enrolled 15 days from the scheduled start date of the program must be classified as a “start” for the purpose of reporting students on the Graduation and Employment Chart.
Transfers to Another Program: Per ACCSC, The total number of students who transferred out of this program and into another ACCSC-approved program at the school; will research how we can track this information
Transfer From Another Program: Per ACCSC, the total number of students who transferred into this program from another ACCSC-approved program at the school, and whose progress in the program is concurrent with the students in this class start date.
Total Starts plus/minus Transfers (Line 5 = 2 - 3 + 4): Determined by Number Started MINUS Transfers to Another Program PLUS Transfers from Another Program; This row will be populated if we can determine a way to track the Transfers from above.

Tracked by Drop code.
Students Available for Graduation (Line 7 = 5 - 6): Determined by Total Starts PLUS/MINUS Transfers MINUS Unavailable for Graduation
Withdrawn/Terminated Students: Per ACCSC, the number of students who withdrew or were terminated, within 150% of the program length (MTF), from the program. This number does not include the students classified as "Unavailable for Graduation".
Graduates within 150% of Program Length: The number of students who graduate within 150% of the stated program length (MTF)

Graduates - Further Education: The number of graduates that continue on with education in an accredited institution of higher education (postsecondary) on at least a half-time basis; Tracked by Graduate Status code.
Graduates - Unavailable for Employment: Per ACCSC, this category removes from the employment rate calculation graduates who fall into one of the following categories: death, incarceration, active military service deployment, the onset of a medical condition that prevents employment, or international students who have returned to their country of origin. Tracked by Graduate Status code.
Available for Employment: The total number of students available for employment; Determined by Graduates within 150% of Program Length MINUS Graduates - Further Education MINUS Graduates - Unavailable for Employment
Graduates - Employed in Field: The number of graduates employed in jobs for which the program trained them. Tracked by Graduate Status code.

Licensure/Certification Examination Pass Rates Chart

2. Number of Graduates: This will reflect the same as the G&E chart
3. # of Graduates Taking Exam: Unsure of how to track this but I imagine it would be based on all students with a license exam date.
4. # of Graduates Passing Exam: Tracked by pass/place codes.
5. Percentage of Grads Passing Exam: Of the total graduates that took the exam, display the percentage of those who had passed the exam.
Licensure/Certification Examination Agency Rate: School or 3rd party should know this, if not enter 0
