REPORTING PROGRAM OUTCOME DATA
As part of the program's achieving and maintaining NAEYC accreditation, it must report annually on at least three of the following measures and display these data via an easily located link on its website.
Outcome Measure #1: The Number of Program Completers
In the chart below, please indicate the number of program completers for the three most recent academic years.(note: the percentages in each row should add up to 100%)
Academic Year | Number of program completers | Percentage of program completers who were attending full-time (at the time of completion) | Percentage of program completers who were attending part-time1 (at the time of completion) |
2017-2018 | 8 | 0 of 8, 0% | 6 of 8, 75% 2 not attending during graduation term |
2016-2017 | 5 | 1 of 5, 20% | 4 of 5, 80% |
2015-2016 | 8 | 1 of 8, 12.5% | 7 of 8, 87.5% |
1 Part-time status is defined by the institution.
Outcome Measure #2: The Program Completion Rate
What is the published timeframe2 for full-time candidates to complete the early childhood program(s) included in this Annual Report? 2 years
Program Name: AAS Child Development
Academic year in which a Fall cohort of full-time students enrolled at the institution (select three sequential years) | Percentage of those students who completed the program within 150% of the published timeframe | Percentage of those students who completed the program within 100%, 200% (twice) or 300% (three times) of the published timeframe (Please circle or underline the indicator above on which the program will report.) |
2016-2017 | 1 of 1 full-time, 100% | 1 of 1, 100% |
2015-2016 | 1 of 1 full-time, 100% | 1 of 1, 100% |
2014-2015 | 3 of 3 full-time, 100% | 3 of 3, 100% |
2 “The Commission defines the published timeframe as the number of terms an individual student was actually enrolled in the program. The terms do not have to be consecutive, but the total number of terms must meet the program’s expected time frame for completion. University-approved withdrawals (e.g., leaves of absence for reasons of health, maternity/paternity, mission work, military assignment) do not count toward the number of terms a student was enrolled in the program. Students taking longer due to reasons other than university-approved withdrawals (e.g., course repeats, remediation plans) cannot be considered as meeting completion expectations.” Language adapted from the Council on Academic Accreditation for Audiology, Speech Language Pathology of the American Speech Language Hearing Association at
