Access to Success (A2S)

Availability:The Access to Success dashboard has been decommissioned while it is being reimagined. For questions or comments, please email air-web@uwm.edu.
Description:Started in the fall of 2005, A2S is UWM's umbrella program that encompasses high impact practices and document student participation. Activities tracked within A2S include mentoring, tutoring, advising, learning communities, course re-design initiatives, undergraduate research, etc. Data is tracked each year by targeted status and remediation placement. The data is presented for UWM as a whole, for each school/college, each race/ethnicity and by gender. Trend data is also available.

Users of this dashboard may be accessing FERPA-protected data and are therefore expected 1) only to access such data if they have a legitimate educational reason for doing so, and 2) to take appropriate measures to protect the confidentiality of such data, for example, redacting cell sizes less than or equal to 5 if the data will be shared outside of UWM.
Production Schedule:Annual
Data Source:A wide variety of data warehouse tables.
