AIM_GLH

DATA DEFINITION

1. The Guided Learning Hours for the Aim to be used in the SLN calculation.

RELEVANT COLLECTIONS

  • ILR(FE)

SOURCE DATA

2. The following variables are used as source data for the calculation of AIM_GLH.

Field NameLabelDataset
LIST_GLH_EVENING*The listed GLH rate for aims delivered in the evening 
LIST_GLH*The listed GLH rate 
A10LSC Funding StreamILR Learning aim data set
A17Delivery ModeILR Learning aim data set
A52Distance Learning FundingILR Learning aim data set
A32Guided Learning HoursILR Learning aim data set
A52_GLH**The GLH value for non listed Learning Aims delivered by distance Learning Funding. 

* LIST_GLH_EVENING AND LIST_GLH are available for LSC colleagues at N:\Data\National\SSoA_0809\Reference Files\ SLN_listed_glh_FE_0607_23Nov07.sav
For colleagues external to the LSC they are in the Lookup_Listed_GLH table in the demand led funding calculator software.

** A52_GLH is LIST_GLH_EVENING AND LIST_GLH are available for LSC colleagues at N:\Data\National\SSoA_0809\Reference Files\ Baserate_GLH_lookup.sav
For colleagues external to the LSC it is in the Lookup_DistanceLearning table in the demand led funding calculator software.

2. The following table shows the steps required to derive AIM_GLH

StepConditionAction if trueAction if false
1Is Listed GLH evening rate greater than zero and the delivery mode is Continuous Learning Evening only (IF LIST_GLH_EVENING > 0 AND A17 = 2)Set AIM_GLH to LIST_GLH_EVENING Go to 5Go to 2
2Is the Listed GLH greater than zero (IF LIST_GLH > 0)Set AIM_GLH to LIST_GLH Go to 5Go to 3
3Is the Distance Learning Funding greater than zero (A52 > 0)Set AIM_GLH to A52_GLH Go to 5Go to 4
4n/aSet AIM_GLH to A32 Go to 5Go to 5
5Is the LSC funding Stream FE (A10 = 20)Set AIM_GLH to 0 Go to 6Go to 6

3. The following SPSS code illustrates how to derive AIM_GLH.

DO IF (list_glh_evening > 0 AND a17 = 2) .

COMPUTE aim_glh = list_glh_evening.

ELSE IF (list_glh > 0) .

COMPUTE aim_glh = list_glh.

ELSE IF (a52 > 0).

COMPUTE aim_glh = a52_glh.

ELSE.

COMPUTE aim_glh = a32.

END IF.

if (A10<>20) aim_glh = 0.
