Census Reporting Data Issue Documentation

This article provides historical information regarding the 2022 Data Governance project focused on the development of a dataset that captures all student enrollment for reporting including those student enrollments added after census.

Detailed Information

Issue Summary

There is interest in having a dataset that captures all student enrollment for reporting including those student enrollments added after census. This is a particular concern for Academic Partnerships students who enroll in a term after the census date, though currently this is still a relatively small proportion of student enrollments.

The workgroup goal is to add to the accuracy of census reporting by designing potential solutions and recommending the most robust options to:

  • Capture enrollments that occur after the census date for a given term
  • Ensure reporting accurately reflects retroactive withdrawals
