2. Indicators of teaching effectiveness (Component 4.2)
Data are not currently available for all programs, as this is collected by the Ohio Department of Education and presented by specific grade bands.  Kent State University’s College of EHHS is working on developing tools to measure our educator licensure program completers’ effectiveness as educators, and we will present data when it is available.
3. Satisfaction of employers and employment milestones (Component 4.3 | A.4.1)
Kent State University’s College of EHHS is working on developing tools to measure employer satisfaction with the preparation of our educator licensure program completers; we intend to report data in 2019.

Outcome Measures

5. Graduation Rates (initial & advanced levels)
Data provided are presented as program admission to graduation persistence; for undergraduate students, this only candidates admitted for advanced study are counted in graduation rate calculations. For graduate students, this number reflects the percentage of students who graduated from  degree programs resulting in licensure (some programs allow for both licensure and non-licensure students, and if intentions were not identified, they are not included in the rate).
6. Ability of completers to meet licensing (certification) and any additional state requirements; Title II (initial & advanced levels)
For initial teacher licensure programs (graduate and undergraduate), the data are derived from Title II.  For advanced programs, this calculation relies on the percentage of graduate students successfully passed state licensing examinations after graduating from degree programs resulting in licensure (some programs allow for both licensure and non-licensure students, and if intentions were not identified, they are not included in the rate).
7. Ability of completers to be hired in education positions for which they have prepared (initial & advanced levels)
Kent State University is currently working with a vendor to assist in identification of post-program employment in educational settings.
8. Student loan default rates and other consumer information (initial & advanced levels)
Kent State University’s FY 2015 three-year draft cohort default rate for federal student loans is 9.8%. This rate is reflective of Kent State’s eight campus system.
