Non-Instructional Staff
Source for Non-Instructional Staff data is IPEDS
Human Resources survey.
HR survey classifies employees according to
occupation.
Non-Instructional Staff
Changes to occupational classifications
beginning with the 2012 IPEDS HR survey make
data incompatible with earlier years.
Non-Instructional Staff
UMKC’s “global grading process” during this
period resulted in many employees being
retitled, and in many cases their occupational
code was changed as well.
This may be responsible for some of the
changes observed since 2012.
