Data

The Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) has eight annual reporting measures that the SOE uses to provide information to the public on program impact and program outcomes. Below are the eight reporting measures for our undergraduate and graduate initial licensure programs with links to supporting data.

The University of Mississippi School of Education, in partnership with The National Strategic Planning and Analysis Research Center (NSPARC) at Mississippi State University, compiles annual Impact Report Cards for Teacher Education and Educational Leadership Programs. Fourteen public and private higher education institutions in Mississippi submit data to establish external benchmarks for statewide educator preparation programs. These data are used in conjunction with de-identified data already in the state data clearinghouse to produce reports to assist with CAEP’s annual reporting measures.
