Budgeted FTE• Budgeted FTE means the number of FTE which
determines a college’s operating budget

Budget FTE• For each instructional area (curriculum, con ed, and basic skills), a college’s
budget FTE is determined by calculating the higher of :– the prior year; or – the average of the two previous years’ enrollment
• Budget FTE are further categorized based on actual FTE proportions :– Curriculum:
• Tier 1: FTE in high cost areas of health care, technical education (construction, engineering, industrial systems, and transportation system sciences), lab-based science, and college-level math courses
• Tier 2: All other curriculum FTE
– Con Ed (OE):• Tier 2: Con ed courses that are a) mapped to a third-party credential, certification, or
industry-designed curriculum and b) are 96 hours in length.• Tier 3: All other con ed FTE
– Basic Skills FTE: All Basic Skills FTE are designated Tier 2.

Why Do the Formula Factors Change?• Legislative salary increases (if provided)
• Other changes in benefit rates (i.e. hospitalization, retirement)
• Legislative or State Board adjustments to the formula
FY 2013-14

Performance-Based AllocationsIn FY 2013-14, $9 million was allocated to colleges based on performance on six performance measures:
1. Success rates of developmental students in subsequent college-level English courses2. Success rates of developmental students in subsequent college-level math courses3. Progress of first-year curriculum students4. Curriculum student retention and graduation5. Attainment of licensure and certifications by students 6. Performance of students who transfer to a four-year institution
In FY 2014-15, the General Assembly has directed the State Board to allocate $24 million based on performance. In addition to the six measures above, two additional measures will be added:
7. Progress of basic skills students8. Attainment of GED diplomas by students
For each measure, funds are allocated based on two factors:• Quality: Funds allocated based on percentage of students who succeed on each measure• Impact: Funds allocated based on the number of students who succeed on each measure

Goal
Floor
For each measure, colleges would earn PBF based on how they compared to both a floor and a goal:
• If a college did not meet the floor, it would receive $0 in PBF for that measure.
•If a college exceeded the floor, but did not meet the goal, it would receive a portion of its potential PBF for that measure.
•If a college met the goal, it would receive 100% of potential PBF for that measure.
•If a college exceeded the goal, it would receive more than 100% of potential PBF for that measure.
Hope Opportunity Jobs
Rewarding Impact: In Concept• Funds not allocated through the Quality
component would be allocated among colleges through the Impact component.
• Impact = the number of students that succeed on the measure– Step 1: Determine Impact Funding
= Total PBF Funding – Quality Allocation
– Step 2: Determine Impact Funding per Student= Impact Funding / Total # of Successful Students
– Step 3: Determine College’s Impact Allocation= Impact Funding per Student * College A’s # of successful students
FY 2013-14

Example College’s Total Formula Allotment
• Curriculum: $ 5,362,524

Budget Flexibility
• The General Assembly has allowed colleges to have flexibility in order to meet individual college needs
• Formulas are for allocation purposes only
• Colleges can spend the money however they choose with the following exceptions:– Basic Skills funding may only be used for basic skills programs– Federal vocational education funding may not be transferred– Customized Training funds may not be transferred– Certain State-supported allocations approved by the State Board
