[OKAIR] OKAIRP Digest, Vol 102, Issue 2

Tue Apr 7 12:47:06 CDT 2015

Lynn,

I did this a couple of years ago for an internal report and used this operational definition:

Time to completion: this variable was defined as the number of years between a student's first semester at TCC and the semester during which they earned a particular credential (within a given year, possible values were .33 of year = 1 semester, .67 of year = two semesters, and 1 full year = three semesters). For example, the time to completion value for a student who graduated in Spring 2012 and first started at TCC in Fall 2010 is 1.67 years, or five semesters.

I then calculated mean and median values for time to completion. See the report here: http://pir.tulsacc.edu/sites/default/files/u2/Time%20to%20Completion%20Analysis%20Report%20-%20Summer%202013.pdf

Lynn

I wrote a report that uses the students first term and graduation term to calculate the number of year.  Not very sophisticated but it works.  It is in PeopleSoft query
