Metric Definition Dictionary

The team recognizes that these demographic groupings represent a very short and limited list of a near infinite combination of identities and experiences. The team also recognizes that the language used may not resonate with all identities of your learners or providers. The demographic groups and language in DataVista for CAEP Adult Learners are the terms used to collect data by WIOA, IPEDS, and / or the Chancellor's Office Management Information System. If your institution has access to data that further disaggregates demographic groups to better align with the identities and language used by your learners, we encourage you to explore your data at that level.
