INTRODUCTION This report documents completions of postsecondary health career educational programs throughout Washington. Each page summarizes program completions for one of 36 selected health education programs. The term “completion” as used in this report encompasses graduation from degree programs as well as completion of a course of study leading to a non-degreed credential. This report covers the periods from 2003-04 through 2010-11. Trend data include absolute numbers of program completions by gender, population-adjusted completion rates, and completions by race/ethnicity. Throughout the report, each academic year, beginning in July and ending in June, is referred to by the calendar year in which the academic year ended.

DATA SOURCES Data for this report come from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data system (IPEDS) of the National Center for Education Statistics for 2004 through 2011. IPEDS is a systematic survey of educational organizations whose primary purpose is to provide postsecondary education. IPEDS does not collect data from organizations that are not primarily educational in nature, for example, hospitals that offer nursing diploma programs. For this reason, the numbers of health career program completers may be underestimated for some professions, such as nurse aides. More information about IPEDS can be found at http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/. Some educational organizations did not report or under-reported data to IPEDS in prior years. In instances where this was known, data was obtained from the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) to supplement completions in the affected programs. State population data are from the Washington State Office of Financial Management Population Estimates for 2008 and the US Census Bureau for 2009 through 2011. Gender: IPEDS provides complete counts by gender, imputing for missing data. Race and Ethnicity: Completions reported by IPEDS categorize completers into one of the following racial/ethnic designations:

• White, non-Hispanic • Hispanic or Latino • Black, non-Hispanic • Asian or Pacific Islander • American Indian or Alaskan Native • Nonresident alien • Unknown.

For the purpose of charting data the ethnic groups are designate das white, Black, Hispanic, Asian and American Indian. Some racial/ethnic data were missing from the data sets. Completions in this report by race and ethnicity are based on percentages for those


2 | P a g e

completers in which race and ethnicity were known (excluding from the denominator those completers whose racial/ethnic data were missing or non-resident aliens).

Limitations of the Data The data in this report are subject to the following conditions. IPEDS attempts to conduct a complete census of all postsecondary educational organizations. Coverage is thought to be high, with response rates above 90 percent. Yearly verification is performed using accreditation lists, but it is not known how many institutions are missing. Although IPEDS imputes for non-responses, the extent of the undercount for missing institutions, non-responses, and specific health occupations where training is available outside of education institutions is unknown.
