Morphology
noncompletion = completion (transparent) = non + complete + ion
A productive negating prefix 'non-' is attached to the noun 'completion', so the meaning is directly 'not completion'.
Etymology
The word noncompletion is made from the prefix non- meaning 'not' and complete, which comes from an old word meaning 'fill up' or 'finish'. So, noncompletion is the 'not finishing' of something, the state of not completing a task or course.
