States are uniquely positioned to provide feedback to teacher preparation programs (TPPs) on the effectiveness of the teachers they train, and to provide information about the quality of TPPs to the public. States have been building the significant data capacity to reliably and securely link teachers with their students' achievement and growth data with states' TPPs. States will need to demonstrate new leadership in being the source for transparency on TPP quality, as well as in creating a culture of using data for continuous improvement. Presented in this report are the Data Quality Campaign's responses to the Department of Education's proposed regulations.
