Who stays, who changes, who drops out

cohorts 2023–2025

Everyone who started this programme here is looked up in the next year's enrolment register by their masked id: still in this programme here; here in another programme; at another institution; or not enrolled anywhere, which is first-year dropout. Changing programme or institution is not dropping out, and not every dropout is final: some come back later, which one year's register cannot see. The bar adds up the cohorts of 2023–2025 — everyone in each outcome over everyone who started, not an average of three years — beside everyone who started the programme anywhere in Chile in those years. A window or a cohort under 30 people carries no rate.

Who graduates, and when

titles 2007–2025

The same cohorts followed into the register of titles: the share with a title in this generic programme by years since they started here — from this institution or from any other, since someone who moved and finished the same programme elsewhere did finish it. 3 years is the formal length here rounded up plus one. A recent cohort has a short line, not a low one: the register goes to 2025.

titles 2023–2025

The titles in this programme that CFT INACAP gave in 2023–2025, in regular plans: from the start of the semester of entry to the date of the title, against the formal length.

After graduating

mifuturo.cl · 2025-2026

What SIES publishes for this programme at CFT INACAP, crossing its graduates with their tax returns: employment is the share of 2021–2023 graduates who earned at least the minimum wage the year after their title; income is the band of the average gross monthly income in the fourth year, for 2018–2020 graduates up to age 30. It is the institution's figure, not a campus's. Below, the same figure for every institution SIES publishes it for — this one outlined, one dot each, with no average across them.

As published by SIES on mifuturo.cl, release 2025-2026: incomes are gross, in pesos of September 2025, and count only graduates earning at least the minimum wage; "keep studying" is the share of 2021–2023 graduates enrolled again the following year. "n/a" is a figure SIES did not publish, usually because fewer than eleven graduates could be matched. The comparison with every institution is on the programme's page. mifuturo.cl

Is it growing or shrinking here?

2007–2026

From 2017–2019 to 2024–2026, its yearly intake here went from 2,627 to 2,236 on average: −15%. Since 2007–2009: +39%. Each figure compares three-year averages, never two single years, and is printed only where both average at least 20 entrants; the windows leave out 2020–2021. More entrants is more places and more demand, not a better programme.

Mineduc's enrolment and titles registers (SIES), read whole for every year and followed person by person by the masked id Mineduc publishes for that purpose; employment and income from SIES on mifuturo.cl. A programme has a page at an institution where it reached 10 entrants there in some year and is taught there today or published on mifuturo. The institutions of a programme add up to the programme, entrant by entrant and cohort by cohort. How each figure is made, and its checks.
