Reporting years and populations vary by measure. Every figure is labeled with its applicable period and source.

Each pair is scaled to its own 2025–26 value. Credit-hour and clock-hour enrollment are separate source populations and should not be added together.

Population note: These program-area measures do not represent a separate collegewide enrollment total. GED counts describe activity during the reporting year rather than outcomes for a single entering cohort.

What “positive placement” means: For these FETPIP program reports, positive placement is the share of completers in the program-specific placement pool who were found in employment related to their training or enrolled in continuing education. The denominator is the placement pool, not all program completers.
