Student Achievement Measure (SAM)
The SAM tracks student movement across postsecondary institutions to provide a more complete picture of under-graduate student progress and completion within the higher education system. SAM is an alternative to the federal graduation rate, which is limited to tracking the completion of first-time, full-time students at one institution.
Voluntary Framework of Accountability (VFA)
The VFA is the principle accountability framework for community colleges with measures defined to encompass the full breadth of the community college mission and the diversity of students' goals and educational experiences.
