  1. Incorporating Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Data in an Institutional Data Warehouse Dr. David Wierschem Jeremy McMillen Dr. Randy McBroom

  2. Drivers for Building a Coordinating Board Data Warehouse • Outcomes Assessment Climate • Accountability from Legislators • THECB Data is used for funding purposes • Could use for strategic management

  3. What is a Data Warehouse? • A data warehouse is a subject oriented, integrated, non-volatile, and time variant collection of data in support of management decisions (Inmon, 1996). • Takes a ‘snapshot’ in time to provide for a consistent data source, which is often difficult to accomplish off of an operational system. • THECB Data establishes a historical source of data that has already gone through data cleansing.

  4. What Information is in THECB Data? • Student Information (001 – Fall, Spring & Summer) • TASP Data (002 – Fall, Spring, Sum I & Sum II) • Course Information (004 – Fall, Spring & Summer) • University Room Use (005 – Fall) • End of Semester Report (006 – Fall, Spring & Summer) • Faculty Data (008 – Fall & Spring) • Graduating Student Report (009 -- Fall) • Admissions Information (00B, Fall)

  5. Why a Data Warehouse? • Allow easy access to data from a variety of sources and platforms with relatively easy integration • Control for the discrepancies in data by migrating the management information system (or data warehouse) from a dynamic data store (operational/ transactional) to a static data store • Being able to conduct extensive data mining. • Allows for integration with other data sources for more complex analysis.

  6. Integration • Iterative issues of submissions/ resubmissions could be reduced; thereby improving the quality and timeliness of data submissions. • Strategic utilization of THECB data could be enhanced if the timeline were reduced. • Building relational databases to allow for expansion of knowledge about reported data.
