Annual Reporting

The West College of Education & Professional Studies (WCOEPS) at Midwestern State University is dedicated to transparency and sharing our candidates' outcome data. The WCOEPS programs comply with the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) standards.  CAEP has identified four (4) annual outcome and impact measures for Educator Preparation Programs (EPPs).  They are included below.

• Measure 1: Completer Impact and Effectiveness. (R4.1)
  • Data must address (a) completer impact in contributing to P-12 student-learning growth AND (b) completer effectiveness in applying professional knowledge, skills, and dispositions.

• Measure 2 (Initial and Advanced): Satisfaction of employers and stakeholder involvement. (R4.2, R5.3, RA4.1)
  • Data provided should be collected on employers' satisfaction with program completers.

• Measure 3 (Initial and Advanced): Candidate Competency at completion (R3.3)
  • Data provided should related to measures the EPP is using to determine if candidates are meeting program expectations and ready to be recommended for licensure. (E.G.: EPP's Title II report, data that reflect the ability of EPP candidates to meet licensing and state requirements or other measures the EPP uses to determine candidate competency at completion.)

• Measure 4 (Initial and Advanced): Ability of completers to be hired (in positions for which they have prepared).
  • Data provided my come from various sources, including state or EPP collected data related to completers' employment in teaching positions for which they were prepared.
