This guide is designed to assist state and local consortia with their evaluation of Tech Prep education programs and with their reporting of Tech Prep program and student outcomes data to meet the accountability requirements of the Perkins Act of 1998.

Section I provides an overview about evaluating Tech Prep education programs; a description of the compliance requirements set by federal legislation; definitions of a Tech Prep student, concentrator, and completer; model for Tech Prep evaluation; and a discussion of the use of internal and external evaluators. Section II reports on the seven essential program elements of Tech Prep and provides state and local Tech Prep evaluation examples. Section III describes Tech Prep performance measures for reporting the Perkins four core indicators, and it provides performance measure examples. Section IV provides information to assist with collecting, analyzing, and presenting Tech Prep program and student outcomes data. Section V links the Tech Prep evaluation process to program improvement. Appendixes, amounting to over two-thirds of the guide, include glossary; 40 references; and reproductions of numerous survey templates and evaluation examples described in Section II. (YLB)
