1. Completer effectiveness and impact on P-12 learning and development (Component R1.4).
Completer Effectiveness
Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) Data
OTES is the primary source of data we use to evaluate program impact and to assess completer effectiveness. This research-based educator evaluation tool was developed by educators from diverse fields and is used by Ohio school districts to evaluate teacher performance.

Impact on P-12 Learning and Development
Value-Added Measures
Value-Added data* are a subset of data related to student growth from OTES. Value-added data only cover select content areas and age bands.
*Value-Added Data were not collected by the state for 2020. For historical value-added data, see KSU's 2019 CAEP Annual Report.
†Beginning in the 2022 reporting year, the Ohio Department of Education has shifted the scaling on this metric to a three-color system, consisting of evidence of 'lesser than expected growth', 'expected growth', and 'greater than expected growth.' This change in scaling will affect the ability for longitudinal comparison.
2. Satisfaction of employers and stakeholder involvement (Components R4.2; R5.3; R4.1).
Satisfaction of Employers
Employer Survey
91¿´Æ¬Íø University’s Research and Evaluation Bureau conducted a phone survey with area administrators about their satisfaction with the preparation of our graduates. The survey was last conducted in the 2020-21 academic year; we plan to administer the survey again in May of the 2025-2026 academic year. The results of the survey's next distribution will be available in 2027.
Stakeholder Involvement
Partner Focus Groups

Clinical Partner Survey
Clinical Partner Survey Results (PDF)
The Clinical Experience Advisory Committee (CEAC) survey was last conducted in 2022. We plan to re-administer this survey periodically to avoid overburdening our partners. The results of the next administration of the survey will be available in 2027.
3. Candidate competency at program completion (Components R3.3; R3.4).
Ohio Assessments for Educators
The Ohio Assessments for Educators (OAE) program assesses the content-area and professional (pedagogical) knowledge of candidates who are seeking initial Ohio educator licensure or adding a new licensure area. The assessments are aligned with Ohio's Learning Standards. Ohio licensure candidates are required to successfully complete only ONE assessment of professional (pedagogical) knowledge for their first license. The addition of other licensure areas or endorsements will require only successful completion of the associated content-area assessment. For more information, see .
| Group | Number taking tests | Number passing tests | Pass Rate (%) |

4. Ability of completers to be hired in education positions for which they have prepared.
Employment Data
91¿´Æ¬Íø University is currently working internally to match our list of licensure approvals with employment information from the state. The results will be available in 2027.
