A computerized Affirmative Action Data Collection and Reporting System was implemented at the University of Cincinnati to assist in monitoring the progress of the University's Affirmative Action program. The benefits derived from the system were definitely a contributing factor in the University's successful attempt to have its Affirmative Action plan approved by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The system addresses itself to data requirements concerning recruitment; testing; hiring; training; promotion; financial aid; salaries; enrollment; and, perhaps greatest of greatest importance, comparison of the workforce with the availability of minorities and women in the labor market.
