This tutorial introduces participants to the Credit Accumulation Rate dashboard available in the Postsecondary Data Partnership (PDP) platform, focusing on how academic performance, measured by GPA, affects student credit accumulation rates. Users will learn how to apply dimensions and filters to isolate student groups, identify achievement gaps between GPA ranges, and analyze differences by enrollment intensity and academic year. The course also highlights how these insights can guide institutional interventions to support student success.

Learning Outcomes:

• Understand how credit accumulation rate connects to academic momentum and student success.
• Apply the GPA Range dimension to identify achievement gaps among student populations.
• Filter dashboard data by attendance status (full-time/part-time) and academic year to deepen analysis.
• Interpret patterns across GPA groups and understand their implications for institutional support services.
• Use PDP dashboard insights to inform advising, tutoring, and academic support strategies.
