AY15-AY16 - Reviewed data from August 2014 through March 2016 and 66% of courses relate to sustainability. Courses relating to environmental, economic, and social sustainability were counted. AY13-AY14 - Reviewed data compiled of courses offered by AT&T and deduced that about 60% of courses related to sustainability. Amount of attendees was counted and analyzed to reflect the amount of staff who participated in a course related to sustainability throughout the year. Low estimate was given until more analysis could be done to confirm the 60% data.
