  7. Core Concepts • What is the follow-up? “A process where placement information is gathered on students who were marked as program completers in the VE-135 enrollment of the previous academic year .” • For the follow-up this year: • Gather placement information on completers reported in the 09-10 VE-135 enrollment. • Follow CCCS placement process guidance.

  8. Core Concepts • Why is the follow-up required? • Program Renewals • Used as a measure of program/student success during the program renewal process—5-Year Trend Placement Report • CTE Funding • Mandated Accountability Reporting • Federal----Perkins Act • Perkins Performance Metrics Reports • Reported at both state and local levels • State----Career Technical Act (CTA) • Annual Colorado Legislative Report

  9. Core Concepts • Why is the follow-up important? • Tool that can measure value of CTE programs both to students and to the workforce. • Tool that can tell us what policy makers want & need to know. • Are CTE program completers getting jobs or are they enrolling in postsecondary education!

  10. Core Concepts • Dates and deadlines • VE-130 Active Teachers Enter Now • Website opens for 10-11 year November 30, 2010 • Begin VE-135 follow-up surveys December 15, 2010 • VE-135 follow-up data due March 30, 2011 • VE-135 enrollment data due July 30, 2011

  11. Core Concepts • Data contacts • Designated VE-135 contacts listed on Universal Contacts (UC) website at http://ctecontact.cccs.edu/ctecontact/index.jsp • Each VE-135 contact has their own website login. • User id’s are now 6 characters; first 3 characters are the school suffix. • Passwords will now expire every 3 months (security precaution). You will be able to reset your password as many times as you like just in case you forget it.

  12. Core Concepts • Monitoring and recordkeeping • Be Aware--Always provide accurate follow-up data! All VE-135 data is subject to federal and state monitoring visits and audits. The CCCS audit department includes data monitoring on random VE-135 student records as part of Perkins monitoring visits. Keep all paperwork used during follow-up surveys on file for 7-years (i.e. phone logs, mail survey, etc).

  13. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports • Retrieve completer reports from the VE-135 Data Collection Website at https://ve135.cccs.edu/login.aspx

  14. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports • After November 30, 2010: • Website rolled to 2010-2011 reporting year • Login to a school. • Go to the VE-135 Student Follow-up section. • Under Step 1, click on the link Download All Follow-up Students OR • To download reports for single CTE programs, click on the Follow-up Student List link next to each program name at the bottom of the page. • Save the Excel file to your local computer. This is a download of data from the website. Opening and making changes to the Excel report does NOT change the data automatically in the VE-135 at CCCS. • The saved Excel file is your completer report listing all of the students you need to conduct the follow-up survey on in December 2010

  15. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports -- After November 30, 2010 Let’s do a demo on the beta 2010-2011 website

  16. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports • Students listed in the completer reports of the previous slide are the ones that you reported as completers in your 2009-2010 enrollment. You should already have this data in your own records. Note to colleges on postsecondary data: your completers are the students you submitted to CDHE in your end of year SURDS degrees awarded for 09-10.

  17. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports • If you want to get a jump start: • Prior to November 30, 2010 • Website still in 2009-2010 reporting year • Login to a school. • Go to the VE-135 Student Enrollment section. • Under “Enrollment Related Reports” click on the link called “Excel Report of your 2009-2010 completers (these are the students you will follow-up on beginning in December of 2010).” • Save the Excel file to your local computer. This is a download of data from the website. Opening and making changes to the Excel report does NOT change the data automatically in the VE-135 at CCCS. • The saved Excel file is your completer report listing all of the students you need to conduct the follow-up survey on in December 2010.

  18. Follow-up Process • Completer Reports – prior to November 30, 2010 Let’s do a demo on the live 2009-2010 website

  19. Follow-up Process • “How to” documentation • Before beginning your student surveys, read the 2011 document “How to fill out the VE-135 Follow-up Completers Document” available in the Documents section of the Help Page on the VE-135 website.

  20. Follow-up Process • “How to” documentation • Condensed very important points: • Do not start your follow-up survey until December 15, 2010. • Phrase all questions, excluding technical skills assessment, relative to what the student was doing between October 1, 2010 and December 31, 2010. • Try to collect survey information on all students in the follow-up. 50% response rate recommended. • Survey all previous year program completers regardless of grade or high school completion. • Even if a program closed or was made inactive in the current school year, you should still survey the students. • If a student is a completer in multiple programs plan to contact them only once and gather placement information according to each program they completed. • You MUST provide an answer in the “Placement” field for EVERY student in the follow-up. • Collect data from your students for as many of the other follow-up fields as possible. • Follow the “Special Rules” section. • Report your data back to CCCS via the CTE Data Collection website by single record data entry or by uploading a data file. The deadline is March 30, 2011.

  21. Follow-up Process • Placement questions • Review table in “How to” document

  22. Follow-up Process • Survey best practices • Review section in “How to” document

  23. Follow-up Process • Preparing for data submission • Data can be submitted by file upload or single record entry. • If you use a completer report downloaded from the website to collect your survey data, you are well on your way to creating a file for simple upload to the website. If you ran a completer report prior to the website opening on Nov 30th, then you may need to update RITS ids that were corrected by CCCS in your 09-10 enrollment submission. • If you have a small number of students it may be more time efficient to just use the single record data entry on the website.

  24. Follow-up Process • Discuss Part II Follow-up Webinar • “Submitting Placement Data” • Tentatively scheduled for mid January, 2011. • Will cover nuts and bolts of submitting placement data onto VE-135 site by file submission or single record entry. • How to fix file submission errors. • Verify that data is properly submitted and is complete. • Run website data submission reports. • Webinar registration email will be sent to all VE-135 contacts as soon as date is finalized.

  25. Questions Answered Address any outstanding questions asked during webinar in Chat and Questions Control Panel features.

  26. Wrap Up • You will receive an email with a survey link on the usefulness of this webinar. Please answer this very short survey if you can. • Recorded webinar will be made available online. Link will be emailed to all attendees. File format will be in the universal Windows Media Player.
