4 National Reporting System The National Reporting System (NRS) is the accountability system for federally funded adult education programs. The NRS is important to states, programs, teachers, and students because it provides a means of regular evaluation of the learner outcomes for adult education programs. In August 1998 the voluntary nature of the NRS changed when the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act within the Workforce Investment Act (WIA - P.L ) became law. 4
5 5 NRS Resources To learn more information about the National Reporting System:

16 16 Data Collection Requirements Entry Records For Each WIA Title II Learner: Collect Gender (Field 4) and Date of Birth (Field 5) Assist the learner in selecting primary and secondary goals, labor force status, and Distance Learning, if applicable Learners with a goal of attaining a high school diploma or GED (Field 12) must have a CASAS test at or above 236
17 FAQ: Appropriate Goal Setting and Program Placement for ASE/GED Learners Only affects Entry Record Field 12, goal setting. No effect on Payment Point attainment No effect on program placement Specific CASAS Scale Score thresholds: Test Benchmark CASAS Scale Scores (Reading or Math) Low ASE High ASE 246 and above 17
18 Data Collection Requirements Update Records Must be completed after a substantial block of instruction or at the end of the instructional period (semester, quarter, term) Must be completed when a learner exits a program Mark the appropriate learner status, progress, instructional level and reason for exiting 18
19 19 FAQ: Data Collection Requirements Update Records Field 7 Status. Mark Retained in Program if student plans to return during the program year of if unsure about returning. Field 8 Progress. Mark Completed Level if student advances based on pre/post-test results but receives same instruction; Advanced Level if student receives more advanced instruction. Field 13 Reason for Exiting. Mark only if Field 7 Status = Left Program.
20 California Assessment Policy The CDE requires WIA Title II funded local agencies to test all students enrolled in ABE, ESL, and ASE instructional programs. Pretests are recommended as soon as the student enrolls in the program Post-tests are recommended at the end of each quarter, semester, or term to document continuous learner improvement after approximately hours of instruction. An updated version dated June 2009 is available for download on the CDE and CASAS Web sites 20
21 21 California Assessment Policy Highlights of CDE Assessment Policy Lists appropriate CASAS assessment instruments authorized for use for WIA II accountability reporting. Details policies for appropriate test administration, scoring, and reporting. Describes appropriate use of test results to inform instruction and improve instructional program outcomes. Documents CDE training attendance policy for WIA II agencies Includes Local Assessment Policy guidelines
22 California Assessment Policy Key changes in CDE Assessment Policy Mandates that all learners must have a valid pretest for placement on the NRS Federal Tables. Addresses the minimum hours requirement between CASAS pre- and post-tests must have at least 40 hours between pretest and the first post-test. (New DIR Item #28) Establishes a California statewide performance goal of at least 50 percent paired test scores for the program year. Includes more specific guidance for distance learning programs. 22
23 Local Assessment Policy WIA Title II agencies must develop and implement a Local Agency Assessment Policy, and update it annually. Local agencies may develop their own local assessment policy guidelines, but must address, at a minimum, all CDE assessment policy guidelines and those included in the Local Agency Assessment template. Download the template at the California Accountability page, at CDE will review local policy and implementation during program monitoring. 23
24 Appropriate Pre- and Post-Test Selection Appropriate 81R-82R-81R 81RX-82RX-81RX 82R-82RX-84R Inappropriate 81R-81R-81R 81R-87R 85R-83R Post-test form of equal or higher level, but not administered consecutively 24
25 25 Valid Paired Test Records Accurate Pretest Test score is within the accurate range or conservative estimate range (high end or score) Appropriate Post-Test Scored within the accurate or conservative estimate range Post-test form of equal or higher level, but not administered consecutively
26 FAQ: Conservative estimate test scores Conservative estimate scores will continue to qualify as valid pre- and post-tests during the Program Year Agencies can monitor their performance by reviewing Item #27 on the Data Integrity Report. Guidance will be provided indicating acceptable percentages of conservative estimate ( score) pretests. 26
27 27 Use of Assessment Modalities ABE/ASE: Use Reading or Math ESL: Use Reading or Listening Pre- and post-test pairs must always be from the same test modality.
28 28 Multiple Modalities Paired Tests What if a student has two sets of pretest and post-test scores, such as one in reading and one in listening? The pretest and post-test pair with the lowest accurate pretest score determines benchmark attainment
29 ABE/ESL CASAS Pretest 236 or Higher Payment Points Drop Reason #10 Enroll learner in GED or high school diploma instructional program with goal of GED or high school diploma Test in another modality Do nothing and student will not be included in federal reporting for WIA Title II. 29
