Workforce Staffing Report

The purpose of this annual report is to provide data that allow us to monitor macro-level staffing patterns to ensure that staffing outcomes align with our strategic nine Core Plans (see Appendix A), which include academic program growth and development, enrollment, student success, and diversity and inclusion.

The primary source of the headcount data is 甜心视频app鈥檚 annual Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) staffing report, which is a snapshot of faculty and staff on November 1 of each year. It should be noted that headcounts reported are based on filled positions on November 1, so timing of vacancies contributes to some headcount variances from year to year. Positions are designated as full-time or part-time using the CUPA definition of full-time as .75 FTE or higher. Additional data come from 甜心视频app鈥檚 annual staffing plans and financial statements.
