W HAT IS CATE? CATE: C areer a nd T echnical E ducation Collects data related to CTE programs and student enrollments in those programs Three collections a year: – Beginning of Year (BOY); Middle of Year (MOY); End of Year (EOY) – Three submissions per collection: CATE_BME-OY, CATE_Course, CATE_Student Course Tuition and Transportation (T&T) reimbursement (AV-1/AV-2 reports)

W HAT A RE THE CATE S UBMISSIONS ? CATE BOY, MOY, EOY (CATE_BME-OY): Collects student and student program information CATE_Course: Collects CTE program course information CATE_Student_Course: Collects information relating to courses students take in their CTE program(s).

CATE Submission data elements can be found through the NH DOE Data Dictionary CATE D ATA E LEMENTS Many data elements are similar to those collected by i4see submissions Example: SASID, Date of Birth, SAU/District/School numbers Certain data elements are specific to CTE Example: Program CIP code, transportation code, concentrator/program completer status, technical skill assessment, etc

F EDERAL R EPORTING : CAR AND EDEN OVAE requires Career and Technical Education to report annually on eight performance indicators at the secondary level: – Academic Attainment: Reading & Math (EDEN N142) – Technical Skill Attainment (EDEN N157) – High School Completion (EDEN N82 and N83) – Graduation Rate (EDEN N154) – Placement (after high school) (EDEN C158 and C169) – Nontraditional Participation and Completion (EDEN N155 and N156) Nontraditional students are those who take part in a program in which their gender comprises 25% or less of that career field. For example, females are nontraditional Automotive Mechanics students; males are nontraditional Cosmetology students Postsecondary performance indicators are populated by the Community College System of NH Both secondary and postsecondary must submit enrollment information (including demographics), financial information, and a detailed narrative. All reporting is due by December 31 st each year

F EDERAL R EPORTING : CAR AND EDEN Secondary Performance Indicator data are reported to OVAE through EDEN/EdFacts – Local performance indicator and enrollment reports are distributed by the Bureau to our regional CTE centers in the late winter/early spring All other federal reporting is done through the Consolidated Annual Report (CAR) CTE data are required specifically on six special populations, in addition to the total CTE population – Limited English Proficiency (LEP); Students with Disabilities (IEP); Economically Disadvantaged; Single Parents/Single Pregnant Teens; Displaced Homemakers; Nontraditional students

D ATA R ETRIEVAL Certain data are retrieved from other NHDOE systems using student SASIDs – This prevents the duplication of both data and effort, and helps protect student privacy – Examples: Race; gender; grade level; postgrad plans; NECAP scores; National Student Clearinghouse data; IEPs; LEPs; economic disadvantage; migrant status Other data are collected in CATE and are specific to CTE – Examples: Program concentrator & completer status; nontraditional program designations; single parent & displaced homemaker; technical skill attainment – While not necessary for federal reporting, student sending and receiving school data are used to generate AV-1 T&T reimbursement reports
