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 2023-24 academic year. The full 2024 Ohio Educator Preparation Performance Report is located on the Ohio Department of Higher Education website.

Measure 2: Satisfaction of Employers and Stakeholder Involvement

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. A productive focus group was held in the 2021-2022 academic year, bringing together 12 experts representing employers of BGSU teacher education and principal graduates. This group provided valuable insights into employer perceptions, particularly regarding data collection and utilization, progress monitoring tools, and candidate diversity. To gain a broader perspective, the EPP is currently utilizing a state-wide survey distributed to employers for the academic year 2023-2024. Data collection will close in June 2025.

In addition to the survey, 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.

Measure 3: Candidate Competency at Program Completion

The EPP’s overall Ohio Assessments for Educators licensure test pass rate for completers in 2023-24 is 95% as reported by the U.S. Department of Education Title 2 report. Pass rates on the Ohio Assessment for Educators (OAE) are reported by test. Tests with fewer than 10 test takers are reported as Low n.

Measure 4: Ability of Completers to be Hired in Education Positions for Which They Have Been Prepared
