�ǿմ�ý Title II Reports

Title II of the Higher Education Act requires three annual reports on the quality of teacher preparation. Schools of education are to report to states the pass rates of their graduates on state certification assessments and other program data in April. States in turn are required to report to the U.S. Department of Education information on certification and licensure requirements, pass rates on state assessments disaggregated and ranked by institution, and other information in October. The Department is making the readily accessible through the Web.

The required reports due in October of each year were submitted by all states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and outlying territories. These state reports include information on:

State certification and license requirements for completers of traditional and alternative teacher preparation programs
Statewide pass rates on state assessments of completers of teacher preparation programs
Information on teacher standards and their alignment with student standards
Criteria for identifying low-performing schools of education
Number of students enrolled in teacher preparation programs by gender, race, and ethnicity
Total number of teachers completing teacher preparation programs and receiving initial credentials
Number of teachers prepared by credential area, academic major, and subject area
