Educator Outcomes Data
CAEP Annual Accreditation Reporting Measures
Measure 1: Completer Effectiveness and Impact on P-12 Learning and Development
Ohio's value-added data system provides information on student academic gains. As a vital component of Ohio's accountability system, districts and educators have access to an extensive array of diagnostic data through the Education Value-Added Assessment System (EVAAS). Schools can demonstrate through value-added data that many of their students are achieving significant progress. Student growth measures also provide students and parents with evidence of the impact of their efforts. Educators and schools further use value-added data to inform instructional practices.
The latest available value-added data was reported for the 2024-25 academic year. The full 2025 Ohio Educator Preparation Performance Report is located on the Ohio Department of Higher Education website.

Measure 2: Satisfaction of Employers and Stakeholder Involvement
Initial Programs
The EPP is committed to ensuring our graduates are well-equipped to meet the needs of schools and students through ongoing efforts to gather feedback and refine our program offerings. The EPP convenes a teacher advisory board meeting each semester. This forum facilitates discussions with stakeholders about state education updates and employer perspectives on our teacher preparation program. Furthermore, the EPP is collaborating with career and technical education partners to align curriculum revisions with new legislation impacting licensure pathways across the state. The EPP Diversifying the Pipeline Committee holds bi-monthly meetings to explore Grow Your Own models and innovative K-12 initiatives that aim to cultivate future educators.
Through these initiatives, the EPP seeks continuous improvement in our programs and remains dedicated to preparing graduates who can effectively address the challenges of today’s classrooms.
To strengthen partnerships, the EPP has been engaging with school partners to discuss adjustments to our professional year calendar and learning objectives, ensuring alignment with evolving educational needs.
Advanced Programs
To support continuous program improvement for the Advanced Programs, the department recently conducted a comprehensive data collection cycle involving graduating students, job fair participants, and regional employers, with results indicating high levels of institutional effectiveness. Graduating students reported 75% satisfaction with the program’s practical application of theory, while 100% of job fair attendees felt the experience enhanced their interview readiness; similarly, employers praised the rigor of the internship and the specialized focus of the special education law course. While candidates demonstrated strong professional communication, feedback suggested a desire for more real-world simulations for students and more specific behavioral examples during interviews.

Candidates in the Advanced Program may complete the licensure examination at any point, as it is not a prerequisite for graduation; however, successful completion is required for official state licensure. It should also be noted that candidates may take the assessment as many times as they choose, and each time the results are accounted for in our institutional statistics.
