Accountability (a) Purpose The purpose of this section is to establish and support State and local performance accountability systems, comprised of the activities described in this section, to assess the effectiveness of the State and the eligible recipients of the State in achieving statewide progress in career and technical education, and to optimize the return of investment of Federal funds in career and technical education activities. (b) State determined performance measures (1) In general Each eligible agency, with input from eligible recipients, shall establish State determined performance measures for a State that consist of— (A) the core indicators of performance described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (2); and (B) a State determined level of performance described in paragraph (3)(A) for each core indicator of performance. (2) Indicators of performance (A) Core indicators of performance for CTE concentrators at the secondary level Each eligible agency shall identify in the State plan core indicators of performance for CTE concentrators at the secondary level that are valid and reliable, and that include, at a minimum, measures of each of the following: (i) The percentage of CTE concentrators who graduate high school, as measured by— (I) the four-year adjusted cohort graduation rate (defined in section 7801 of this title); and (II) at the State's discretion, the extended-year adjusted cohort graduation rate defined in such section 7801. (ii) CTE concentrator proficiency in the challenging State academic standards adopted by the State under section 6311(b)(1) of this title, as measured by the academic assessments described in section 6311(b)(2) of this title. (iii) The percentage of CTE concentrators who, in the second quarter after exiting from secondary education, are in postsecondary education or advanced training, military service or a service program that receives assistance under title I of the National and Community Service Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12511 et seq.), are volunteers as described in section 2504(a) of title 22, or are employed. (iv) Indicators of career and technical education program quality as follows: (I) That shall include at least 1 of the following: (aa) The percentage of CTE concentrators graduating from high school having attained a recognized postsecondary credential. (bb) The percentage of CTE concentrators graduating from high school having attained postsecondary credits in the relevant career and technical education program or program of study earned through a dual or concurrent enrollment program or another credit transfer agreement. (cc) The percentage of CTE concentrators graduating from high school having participated in work-based learning. (II) That may include any other measure of student success in career and technical education that is statewide, valid, and reliable, and comparable across the State. (v) The percentage of CTE concentrators in career and technical education programs and programs of study that lead to non-traditional fields. (B) Core indicators of performance for CTE concentrators at the postsecondary level Each eligible agency shall identify in the State plan core indicators of performance for CTE concentrators at the postsecondary level that are valid and reliable, and that include, at a minimum, measures of each of the following: (i) The percentage of CTE concentrators who, during the second quarter after program completion, remain enrolled in postsecondary education, are in advanced training, military service, or a service program that receives assistance under title I of the National and Community Service Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12511 et seq.), are volunteers as described in section 2504(a) of title 22, or are placed or retained in employment. (ii) The percentage of CTE concentrators who receive a recognized postsecondary credential during participation in or within 1 year of program completion. (iii) The percentage of CTE concentrators in career and technical education programs and programs of study that lead to non-traditional fields. (C) Alignment of performance indicators In developing core indicators of performance under subparagraphs (A) and (B), an eligible agency shall, to the greatest extent possible, align the indicators so that substantially similar information gathered for other State and Federal programs, or for any other purpose, may be used to meet the requirements of this section. (3) State determined levels of performance (A) State determined levels of performance for core indicators of performance (i) In general (I) Levels determined by the eligible agency Each eligible agency, with input from eligible recipients, shall establish in the State plan submitted under section 2342 of this title, for each year covered by the State plan, State determined levels of performance for each of the core indicators described under subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (2) for career and technical education activities authorized under this subchapter. The level of performance for a core indicator shall be the same for all CTE concentrators in the State. (II) Technical assistance The Secretary may assist an eligible agency in establishing the State determined levels of performance under this subparagraph only at the request of that eligible agency. (III) Requirements Such State determined levels of performance shall, at a minimum— (aa) be expressed in a percentage or numerical form, so as to be objective, quantifiable, and measurable; (bb) require the State to continually make meaningful progress toward improving the performance of all career and technical education students, including the subgroups of students described in section 6311(h)(1)(C)(ii) of this title, and special populations, as described in section 2302(48) of this title; and (cc) have been subject to the public comment process described in subparagraph (B), and the eligible agency has provided a written response; (dd) when being adjusted pursuant to clause (ii), take into account how the levels of performance involved compare with the State levels of performance established for other States, considering factors including the characteristics of actual (as opposed to anticipated) CTE concentrators when the CTE concentrators entered the program, and the services or instruction to be provided; (ee) when being adjusted pursuant to clause (ii), be higher than the average actual performance of the 2 most recently completed program years, except in the case of unanticipated circumstances that require revisions in accordance with clause (iii); and (ff) take into account the extent to which the State determined levels of performance advance the eligible agency's goals, as set forth in the State plan. (ii) Allowable adjustment of State determined levels of performance for subsequent years Prior to the third program year covered by the State plan, each eligible agency may revise the State determined levels of performance for any of the core indicators of performance for the subsequent program years covered by the State plan, and submit the revised State determined levels of performance to the Secretary. If the eligible agency adjusts any levels of performance, the eligible agency shall adjust those levels in accordance with clause (i), and address written comments of stakeholders as described in subparagraph (B). The Secretary shall approve those revised levels of performance if those levels meet the requirements described in subclause (III) of clause (i). The State determined adjusted levels of performance identified under this clause shall be considered to be the State determined levels of performance for the State for such years and shall be incorporated into the State plan. (iii) Unanticipated circumstances If unanticipated circumstances arise in a State or changes occur related to improvements in data or measurement approaches, the eligible agency, at the end of the program year, may revise the State determined levels of performance required under this subparagraph. After public comment, as described in subparagraph (B), the eligible agency shall submit such revised levels of performance to the Secretary with evidence supporting the revision. The Secretary shall approve any such revision if that revision meets the requirements of clause (ii). (B) Public comment (i) In general Each eligible agency shall develop the levels of performance under subparagraph (A) in consultation with the stakeholders identified in section 2342(c)(1)(A) of this title.
