Faculty and Staff FTE (Full-time Equivalent) reports updated to include 2008/2009
- Calculation of Vacancy FTE's (and the Permanent Complement calculation, which includes Vacancies) was changed in November, 2009 to correct false vacancies generated when account numbers changed in the period between budget forcasting and the generation of fiscal year-end FTE reports. The "Vacancy" column in the report has been changed to "Estimated Vacancies" because of situations where the data representing budgeted positions is not reconcilable with data representing actual positions due to incomplete or inconsistent data elements. As such, false vacancies could result in a small percentage of the calculations. The revised calculation was applied to all reports containing fiscal years 2006/2007, 2007/2008 and 2008/2009.
