Measure 2: Satisfaction of employers and stakeholder involvement. (R4.2|R5.3| RA4.1)
Satisfaction of Employers
Advanced programs are currently working on a revised employer satisfaction survey. The timeline for these surveys is in the EPPs Phase-in Plan.
Stakeholder Involvement
The Neag School of Education regularly involves internal and external stakeholders in program design, evaluation, and continuous improvement processes. Program faculty meet frequently throughout the academic year to review program data and discuss program design, evaluation, and improvement. In addition, stakeholder feedback is systematically sought at multiple points of each program (entrance survey, clinical/internship/practicum evaluations [completed by students, cooperating teachers/supervisors, and university faculty], exit surveys, alumni satisfaction surveys, and/or employer satisfaction surveys). Program faculty hold regular advisory board meetings which provide opportunities for stakeholders to discuss the strengths of each program, offer input on program evaluations, and share their thoughts on ways to improve the program. The Neag School of Education faculty review the feedback elicited from each of these methods and use it to develop and monitor continuous improvement processes for the educational programs.

- edTPA: Beginning in September 1, 2018, the State of Connecticut required an edTPA official score for all initial licensure teacher candidates completing teacher preparation program approved by the State Board of Education as a result, AY 2016-17 and AY 2017-18 reflect piloting in the Neag School of Education.
- Praxis 6412 – Connecticut Administrator Test: Effective September 2018, CT transitioned from a state-developed licensure assessment to the Educational Leadership Administration and Supervision (ELAS) test, developed and administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS). After this transition, the CT-based organization that provided EPPs with test data from the state-developed assessment ceased to do so, and, as a result, administrative preparation programs will have a gap in their test data reporting.
