All very fair opinions. I am definitely not trying to cover up any bad market periods! However, I am endeavoring to bring the reporting more in line with what is traditionally done in higher education, as well as give a full perspective on the industry by allowing a longer time

\+1 to showing more data, and having like 4 time periods.
Opinion: In the "what you can say in marketing" clauses, I think it should stay at the six month as this "transition" happens. My fear would be bootcamp websites showing side by side 2021, 2022, numbers and the 2022 look the same but are 12 month windows and the 2021s are 6 month. Based on the info sessions I've been to and marketing I've seen, I would expect companies (which is totally what they should do) to present the best numbers they are allowed to present.
Opinion: In higher education people spend 4 years doing a degree and then spending 1 year to get a job is much different then people spending 2-3 months to get a certificate and spending 1 year to get a job.
