The program is transparent with the public about its effectiveness in preparing special educators, publishing on its website in a place easily accessible to current and prospective candidates and the public:
Program objectives and evidence of meeting these objectives; and
Effectiveness data including the number of program completers by academic year, rate of completion within program’s published timeframe, and other institutionally designed measures that speak to program effectiveness.
Expectation 3 requires programs to publicly post performance data and to provide evidence that the program demonstrates ongoing attention to innovation and improvement.
Sample evidence for Expectation 3 could include demonstration of effective performance in relation to candidate learning (e.g., completion, graduation, retention, success with academic transfer, success with entry into graduate school).
