The Teacher Preparation Feedback Report (TPFR) is produced for all in-state 4-year public and independent colleges and by the Kentucky Center for Education and Workforce Statistics (KCEWS), utilizing data from the Kentucky Longitudinal Data System (KLDS). The TPFR includes data in the KLDS – specifically data from the Education Professional Standards Board (EPSB) and the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE).

The TPFR answers the following questions:

· Who are our future teachers?

· What initial certification programs are producing the most Program Completers?

· How are candidates progressing through their Teacher Preparation Programs?

· Do Program Completers continue to get a statement of eligibility and certification?

· What are employment outcomes for Program Completers one year after completion?

· For Program Completers employed as a certified K-12 teacher one year after completion, where were they employed?

· What are employment and retention rates for Program Completers?

Occasionally, data from one source will not conform to data from another source because of differences in candidate cohorts, how variables are defined, the treatment of missing data, and other factors. This means that data published in this report may not be comparable to data published in other reports. Values that are not available or are suppressed to preserve individual privacy are represented by the term “redacted”.

This page looks at recent program admissions in terms of gender and race. The cohort is defined by admission into a Teacher Preparation Program (TPP), as recorded by the EPSB, in the 2013, 2014, and 2015 Academic Years. Individuals are counted only once per EPP and Program Level (Initial Certificate Bachelor's Level versus Initial Certificate Graduate Level), even if enrolled in multiple TPPs in the same year.

Where possible, race/ethnicities with less than 10 individuals have been rolled into "All Other or Unknown Race/Ethnicities" in order to avoid redaction while maintaining data confidentiality and privacy.

When "redacted" shows, N is less than 10. When blank, no data is present. Initial Certification Teacher Preparation Program Completions by Program Subject - Institution: University of Kentucky, 2013 160 n

This chart displays retention information for those individuals employed as a certified public K-12 employee one year out. This subset of individuals is then followed longitudinally to see whether they retain consistent employment across the subsequent 4 years (continually employed through year 2, continually employed through year 3, etc.). If an individual is employed in Yr 1, they are followed for years 2 through 5 to see whether they maintained employment. If an individual is employed in year 2, and year 4 (but not year three), the individual would be included in ‘Returned Year 2’, but not in any subsequent returning years.
