4. Performance Measures: Under the 

Government Performance and Results 

Act of 1993 (GPRA), the Department has 

established a set of performance 

measures, including long-term 

measures, that are designed to yield 

information on various aspects of the 

effectiveness and quality of the 

Personnel Development to Improve 

Services and Results for Children with 

Disabilities Program. These measures 

include: (1) The percentage of Special 

Education Personnel Development 

projects that incorporate evidence-based 

practices into their curriculum; (2) the 

percentage of scholars completing 

Special Education Personnel 

Development-funded programs who are 

knowledgeable and skilled in evidencebased practices for infants, toddlers, 

children, and youth with disabilities; (3) 

the percentage of Special Education 

Personnel Development-funded scholars 

who exit preparation programs prior to 

completion due to poor academic 

performance; (4) the percentage of 

Special Education Personnel 

Development-funded degree/

certification recipients who are working 

in the area(s) for which they were 

prepared upon program completion; (5) 

the percentage of Special Education 

Personnel Development-funded degree/

certification recipients who are working 

in the area(s) for which they were 

prepared upon program completion and 

who are fully qualified under IDEA; (6) 

the percentage of Special Education 

Personnel Development degree/

certification recipients who maintain 

employment in the area(s) for which 

they were prepared for three or more 

years and who are fully qualified under 

IDEA; and (7) the Federal cost per fully 

qualified degree/certification recipient. 

In addition, the Department will be 

gathering information on the following 

outcome measures: (1) The number and 

percentage of degree/certification 

recipients who are employed in highneed schools; (2) the number and 

percentage of degree/certification 

recipients who are employed in a school 

for at least three years; and (3) the 

number and percentage of degree/

certification recipients who are rated as 

effective by their employers. 

Grantees may be asked to participate 

in assessing and providing information 

on these aspects of program quality. 

5. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award, the Secretary may 

consider, under 34 CFR 75.253, the 

extent to which a grantee has made 

‘‘substantial progress toward meeting 

the objectives in its approved 

application.’’ This consideration 

includes the review of a grantee’s 

progress in meeting the targets and 

projected outcomes in its approved 

application, and whether the grantee 

has expended funds in a manner that is 

consistent with its approved application 

and budget. In making a continuation 

grant, the Secretary also considers 

whether the grantee is operating in 

compliance with the assurances in its 

approved application, including those 

applicable to Federal civil rights laws 

that prohibit discrimination in programs 

or activities receiving Federal financial 

assistance from the Department (34 CFR 

100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
