Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
SJSU does not have separate course listings for continuing education. Instead, non-degree seeking students are allowed to enroll in almost any SJSU courses provided they meet prerequisites and space is available. Therefore, an alternate method of calculating this credit was necessary. Based on conversations with AASHE staff, the number of sustainability-focused or -related courses in which any Open University students were enrolled was divided by the total number of SJSU courses with Open University students enrolled. This information was gathered with the support of the Office of Institutional Research’s database.
