Logical Transformation/Calculation

Instructional Administrative Fraction (IAF) = Instructional administrative FTE / Total workload FTE.

Examples

This faculty data element represents (for a given faculty person) the total reported Instructional Administrative Fraction (IAF) taken over all department appointments.

For example, a faculty person with a one-fourth time instructional administrative appointment in a specific department would be reported with an IAF of 0.250.
