Instructions

This reporting system is a mechanism by which institutions of higher education and other state-approved teacher preparation programs meet the new reporting requirements on teacher preparation, certification, and licensing mandated by Title II of the Higher Education Act, as amended in 2008. The Office of Postsecondary Education is responsible for assisting institutions and states in fulfilling the requirements and for issuing the annual report to Congress.


Section 205 of Title II of the Higher Education Opportunity Act mandates that the Department of Education collect data on state assessments, other requirements, and standards for teacher certification and licensure, as well as data on the performance of teacher preparation programs. The law requires the Secretary to use these data in submitting an annual report on the quality of teacher preparation to the Congress.

Public Burden Statement

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 1840-0744. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 80 hours per response, including time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. The obligation to respond to this collection is mandatory Public Law 110-305, section 205, Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended in 2008, and the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015 (PL 113-235). If you have any comments concerning the accuracy of the time estimate, suggestions for improving this individual collection, or if you have comments or concerns regarding the status of your individual form, application or survey, please contact U.S. Department of Education, Freddie Cross, 400 Maryland Ave., SW, Washington, DC 20202, Freddie.cross@ed.gov or (202) 453-7224 directly.


General Guidance


Quick Reference Links


  • A Glossary of Key Terms used in the State Report Card is available below and is referenced throughout the report.


The Institutional and Program Report Card (IPRC) reporting system is an online tool by which Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) and other organizations with state-approved teacher preparation programs can meet the annual Title II reporting requirements on teacher preparation, certification and licensing.


The IPRC requires information on teacher preparation programs that prepare candidates for an initial teaching credential. When completing your report, do not include candidates who already have a teaching credential and are completing a program to earn additional licenses or endorsements. The IPRC does not collect information for candidates seeking administrative or counseling credentials who are completing programs for administrators, guidance counselors, or other school staff other than classroom teachers (e.g., administrators, guidance counselors).


IHEs with only traditional teacher preparation programs will submit one report for traditional programs. IHEs with only alternative routes will submit one report for alternative programs. IHEs with both traditional and alternative programs will submit two reports—one for traditional programs and one for alternative programs. The two reports are identical; the only distinction is the type of program reporting.


General reminders about IHE Title II reporting:


  • Your report is due on or before June 30.


  • You are encouraged to use the text boxes throughout the report and the optional Contextual Information section to provide additional information describing your teacher preparation program and to provide further context for the data.


  • Several sections are preloaded from the prior year’s IPRC, if one was submitted. Review these sections, and update them as needed.



Glossary of Key Terms:


Academic major
The actual major(s) declared by the program completer.

Academic year
TA period of 12 consecutive months, starting September 1 and ending August 31.

Adjunct Faculty Supervising Clinical Experience
Teacher preparation provider staff (whether teachers or other educational leaders) who are engaged with the teacher-candidates during their supervised clinical experience, in terms of spending time observing or supervising candidates or discussing the clinical experience with candidates or other teacher preparation program faculty.

Alternative route to a teaching credential
A teacher preparation pathway that primarily serves candidates that are the teacher of record in a classroom while participating in the route. Alternative routes to a teaching credential are defined as such by the state.

Cooperating Teachers/PreK-12 Staff Supervising Clinical Experience
PreK-12 staff who teach in the classrooms in which candidates are placed for clinical experiences, who are engaged with teacher-candidates during their supervised clinical experience, in terms of observing or supervising candidates or discussing the clinical experience with candidates or other teacher preparation program faculty.

Enrolled student
An individual who has been admitted, enrolled, and registered in a teacher preparation program and participated in the program during the academic year. Participation may include taking a course, participating in clinical experience, or participating in other program activities. Individuals who were enrolled and completed the program during the academic year are counted in the total count of enrolled students as well as in the subset of program completers (see “program completer”).

Faculty supervising clinical experience
All persons whom the institution regards as having faculty status, who were assigned by the teacher preparation program to provide supervision and evaluation of student teaching and who have an administrative link or relationship to the teacher preparation program.

Full-time equivalent faculty
Each faculty member who is employed full-time by the IHE counts as 1. Each faculty member who is employed part-time by the IHE is counted in proportion with the amount of time the individual is employed (for example, a faculty member who is employed half-time is counted as .5).

Individualized education program team
The term `individualized education program team' or `IEP Team' means a group of individuals composed of the parents of a child with a disability; not less than one regular education teacher of such child (if the child is, or may be, participating in the regular education environment); not less than one special education teacher, or where appropriate, not less than one special education provider of such child; a representative of the local educational agency who is qualified to provide, or supervise the provision of, specially designed instruction to meet the unique needs of children with disabilities; is knowledgeable about the general education curriculum; and is knowledgeable about the availability of resources of the local educational agency; an individual who can interpret the instructional implications of evaluation results, who may be a member of the team described above; at the discretion of the parent or the agency, other individuals who have knowledge or special expertise regarding the child, including related services personnel as appropriate; and whenever appropriate, the child with a disability.

IPEDS ID
IPEDS is the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System. It is a system of interrelated surveys conducted annually by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). IPEDS gathers information from every college, university, and technical and vocational institution that participates in the federal student financial aid programs. Users who do not know their IPEDS ID may search for their institution at https://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/. Teacher preparation providers that are not based in a college, university, or technical or vocational institution that participates in the federal student financial aid programs may not have an IPEDS ID, and can indicate that in the available text box.

Nonclinical coursework
Any course in the teacher preparation program curriculum that focuses on content, such as academic subject matter, and does not require students to participate in the activities of supervised clinical experience as described in the glossary definition may be counted as nonclinical coursework. The curriculum policies of each state and its institutions will identify coursework that is nonclinical or clinical. See supervised clinical experience.

Pass rate
The percentage of students who passed assessment(s) taken for an initial teaching credential in the field of preparation.

  • Single assessment pass rate: The percentage of students who passed the assessment among all who took the assessment.

  • Summary pass rate: The percentage of students who passed all tests they took for their area of specialization among those who took one or more tests in their specialization areas.

Program completer
A person who has met all the requirements of a state-approved teacher preparation program. Program completers include all those who are documented as having met such requirements. Documentation may take the form of a degree, institutional certificate, program credential, transcript or other written proof of having met the program’s requirements. In applying this definition, the fact that an individual has or has not been recommended to the state for an initial teaching credential may not be used as a criterion for determining who is a program completer.

Quantifiable goal
A quantifiable goal is a clear, specific milestone by which programs can measure progress towards increasing the number of prospective teachers in shortage areas. A specific, quantifiable goal must include a measurable value. For example, instead of “increase program enrollment,” which is not a specific, quantifiable goal, a program could set a goal to “increase program enrollment by five participants.”

Scaled score
A scaled score is a conversion of a student's raw score on a test or a version of the test to a common scale that allows for a numerical comparison between students. Because most major testing programs use multiple versions of a test, the scale is used to control slight variations from one version of a test to the next. Scaled scores are particularly useful for comparing test scores over time, such as measuring semester-to-semester and year-to-year growth of individual students or groups of students in a content area. However, within the same test, different content areas are typically on different scales, so a scaled score of 24 in Mathematics may not mean the same as a scaled score of 24 in Reading.

Supervised clinical experience
A series of supervised field experiences (including student teaching) with PK-12 students that occur as a sequenced, integral part of the preparation program prior to the candidate becoming the teacher of record. Please note that Title II, Section 202(d)(2) describes features of clinical experience. Courses in the curriculum that include the activities described in 202(d)(2) may be considered clinical coursework. The curriculum policies of each state and its institutions will identify coursework that is clinical and nonclinical.

Teacher credential assessment
A test or other structured method that measures the qualifications of prospective teachers, has a pass-fail outcome, and is used by the state for teacher credentialing.

Teacher preparation program
A program, whether traditional or alternative, offered by a teacher preparation provider that leads to a specific state teacher credential in a specific field.

Teacher preparation provider
An IHE or other organization that is authorized by the state to prepare teachers.

Universal design for learning
A scientifically valid framework for guiding educational practice that provides flexibility in the ways information is presented, in the ways students respond or demonstrate knowledge and skills, and in the ways students are engaged; and reduces barriers in instruction, provides appropriate accommodations, supports, and challenges, and maintains high achievement expectations for all students, including students with disabilities and students who are limited English proficient.

Teachers Prepared by Academic Major


Instructions: Please provide the number of teachers prepared by academic major for academic year 2020-21. For the purposes of this section, number prepared means the number of program completers. "Academic major" refers to the actual major(s) declared by the program completer. An individual can be counted in more than one academic major. If no individuals were prepared in a particular academic major, please leave that cell blank. (§205(b)(1)(H))


Please note that the list of majors includes several "Teacher Education" majors, as well as several noneducation majors. Please use care in entering your majors to ensure education-specific majors and non-education majors are counted correctly. For example, if an individual majored in Chemistry, that individual should be counted in the "Chemistry" academic major category rather than the "Teacher Education–Chemistry" category.

Section III: Program Pass Rates


Instructions: The pass rates table is populated from files provided by the testing company or state. The table provides information on the performance of the students in your teacher preparation program on each teacher credential assessment used by your state. In cases where a student has taken a given assessment more than once, the highest score on that test is used. In the case of a teacher preparation program with fewer than 10 scores reported on any single initial teacher credential assessment during an academic year, the program shall collect and publish information with respect to an average pass rate and scaled score on each state credential assessment taken over a three-year period. (§205(a)(1)(B))

Please note that this page does not have an edit feature as the pass rates have already been through several rounds of verification. If you identify an error, please contact RTI's Title II Support Center and your testing company representative.
