OPTION #1
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 If you have the number of credit hours, use the Academic FTE Chart. (Open FTE tab.) 
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 (This chart is based on the information found at

OPTION #2
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 If you do not have the credit hours, determine the FTE by the amount of time or effort  
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 expected for the payment. 
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 Example: You are paying someone $2,500 to work on a project for the department. You plan to  
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 have them work 20 hours a week for a 10 week period (April 8 to June 14). 
		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 Calculation: 
		


		
20 hours/40 hours in a week = .50
		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		
10 weeks work/17 weeks in a semester = .59
		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		
The FTE would be the .50 x .77 = .29 
		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


		


	
	

		


		
 Change only the yellow boxes to calculate the FTE.
