The Education and Training overall achievement rates are calculated using the standard Overall methodology and includes component aims where the Actual End date is not blank.

Timely Achievement Rates

The Education and Training timely achievement rates are calculated using the standard Timely methodology and include component aims where the Planned End date is before the end of the PICSWeb Report period.
