The CAEP Annual Reporting Measures work together as indicators of EPP performance in relation to candidates as they complete preparation, and to completers once they are on the job. They are basic indicators of an EPP’s performance sought by many external audiences—policymakers, parents, stakeholders, and the media, for example. CAEP defines the Annual Reporting Measures to include four impact measures:
- Evidence of completer impact on P-12 student learning and development
- Indicators of teaching effectiveness, observation instruments, and student surveys
- Employer satisfaction and completer persistence
- Completer satisfaction
CAEP Reporting Measures also include the following outcome and consumer measures for initial candidates and completers at both the Initial- and Advanced-Levels:
- Completer or graduation rate
- Licensure/certification rate
- Employment rate
- Consumer information [NOTE: CAEP does not use consumer information in accreditation decision making.]
