COMPREHENSIVE DATABASE GUIDELINES for Kentucky Higher Education Institutions 2020-21 About the Council on Postsecondary Education The Council on Postsecondary Education is Kentucky’s higher education coordinating agency committed to strengthening our workforce, economy, and quality of life. We do this by guiding the continuous improvement and efficient operation of a high-quality, diverse, and accessible system of postsecondary education. Key responsibilities include: • developing and implementing a strategic agenda for postsecondary education that includes measures of progress. • producing and submitting a biennial budget request for adequate public funding of postsecondary education. • determining tuition rates and admission criteria at public postsecondary institutions. • collecting and distributing data about postsecondary education performance. • ensuring the coordination and connectivity of technology among public institutions. • licensing non-public postsecondary institutions to operate in the Commonwealth.

Based on feedback that we received throughout the previous reporting year, a few clarifications have been made to instructions, but these are also very limited. What has changed is the overall structure of the document. We have now integrated the Comprehensive Data Reporting Guidelines for Independent Institutions into this document. In an effort to increase usability and reduce clutter, definitions have been moved to the appendices and policies have been hyperlinked to their corresponding webpages. Other additions include the Strategic Agenda Metric Validation Schedule and the Diversity Quantitative Review Schedule. Each section now includes a list of metrics that will be validated during that collection period along with the metric’s technical definition in the collection instructions. Technical definitions have also been added for the Performance Funding Student Credit Hour metric and the Outcome Measure Graduation Rates. Strategic Agenda Metric operational definitions have been added to the appendices. The Diversity Schedule contains a list of metrics that are used during the Diversity Policy quantitative review process, along with collection information and year of data. Last, hyperlinks have been added to the document for quick navigation to pertinent information. We are hopeful that these changes to the Comprehensive Database Guidelines will make the reporting process more efficient, and we look forward to working with you in academic year 2020-21.
