Ultimately, if a student is in 133A and not in 124A or not in 125A then a student is included in 126A
This metric definition differs from the definition of skills-builder students: Students with greater than or equal to 0.5 non-introductory units, passed all vocational courses and did not earn a California community college award, who did not enroll in any postsecondary institution in the following year.
This metric is not aligned to the "Short-Term Career" student journey.
