1. The credentialing participation rate is only calculated for programs where the only pathway to employment is passing a Licensing Examination as required by the applicable regulatory body in the State of Nevada. The credentialing participation rate is determined by using the ABHES required method of calculation, for the reporting period July 1 through June 30, as follows:
  Examination participation rate = GT/GE
  GT = Total graduates taking examination
  GE = Total graduates eligible to sit for examination

1. The credentialing pass rate is only calculated for programs where the only pathway to employment is passing a Licensing Examination as required by the applicable regulatory body in the State of Nevada. The credentialing pass rate is determined by using the ABHES required method of calculation, for the reporting period July 1 through June 30, as follows:
  Examination Pass Rate = GP/GT
  GP = Graduates passing examination (any attempt)
  GT = Total graduates taking examination.
