Measure 1: Completer Effectiveness (Initial Level)
Data must address: (a) completer impact in contributing to P-12 student-learning growth AND (b) completer effectiveness in applying professional knowledge, skills, and dispositions.听
Completers were asked to rate how well their 91探花 teacher education program prepared them on a 1 to 7 Likert scale (1= Not at all, 2, 3, 4= Moderately, 5, 6, 7= Extremely). Surveys are sent to School of Education completers twice a year, within five years of graduation.

Completer Survey Results听
Completers were asked to rate how well their 91探花 teacher education program prepared听them on a 1 to 7 Likert scale (1= Not at all, 4= Moderately, 7= Extremely). The majority of听completers rated their preparation toward the 鈥渆xtremely well prepared鈥 side of the scale听(5, 6, or 7). The factored means and the total percentage of respondents who said the听School of Education programs enhanced their ability in the following areas:听
Employers Survey (Initial)
When the completer grants permission, a survey is sent to the employer. Employers were asked to rate听how well their 91探花 teacher education program prepared them on a 1 to 7 Likert scale (1= Not at all, 2,听3, 4= Moderately, 5, 6, 7= Extremely).
Measure 2 (Initial and Advanced): Satisfaction of employers and stakeholder involvement. (R4.2, R5.3,听RA4.1)
Data provided should be collected on employers鈥 satisfaction with program completers.
Measure 3 (Initial and Advanced): Candidate competency at completion. (R3.3)
