Coverage

All StudentCourseSessions at providers in Scotland where StudentCourseSession.SCSENDDATE exists.

Description
This field indicates the providers best academic judgement of the Full Time Equivalence (FTE) of the student for this StudentCourseSession.
Notes

This field records the FTE that the student completed during the StudentCourseSession.This is only required to be submitted once the StudentCourseSession has ended so that an accurate FTE for the student's activity can be recorded.

Values can be recorded to one decimal place.

This cannot be exact in all cases and a strict pro-rata model is not expected. The aim is to give a better approximation than the use of arbitrary conversion factors.

Reason Required
To monitor intensity of study and to allow analysis by FTE rather than by headcount. Particularly significant for analysing load and allocations of funding for part-time students.
