Occupationally Specific

 

The Occupationally Specific checkbox is used during Fall Enrollment in Occupationally Specific Programs reporting, which will be implemented in a future release. Until this function is available, you do not need to select this checkbox.

Select this checkbox if the CIP code is directly related to an occupation.

The following definition of Occupational Program was taken from IPEDS Graduation Rate Survey: Guidelines for Survey Respondents (Broyles, Susan G., 1997, p. III-3.):  "A program of study consisting of one or more courses, designed to provide the student with sufficient knowledge and skills to perform in a specific occupation."
