STUDENT OBJECTIVE
• The student ‘objective’ indicates whether a student is
included in accountability reporting or not. If a student
meets the definition of a preparatory student, the value in
the ‘student objective’ field must be changed to
‘preparatory’. There are no exceptions.
• Students whose objective is ‘exploring’ are included in
enrollment/participation reports but not included in
accountability reports, except for the Perkins
nontraditional participation measurement and College
and Career Readiness measurement.
Exploring students:
• New students must be enrolled in at least one
technical education course to be entered into the
TEDS database.
• New students are entered with ‘exploring’ in the
student objective field and changed to
‘preparatory’ when they meet the requirements.
Exploring students:
– If student is enrolled in an exploratory program the
student objective is automatically ‘exploring’.
– Student has less than 3 technical credit hours in a
preparatory program/career major (secondary).
– Student is not included in Perkins IV performance
measure calculations (except for nontraditional
participation)
– Student is included in College and Career Readiness
measurement
Preparatory students:
Any student who has enrolled in CTE courses and has
successfully completed 3 or more technical credit hours in
the same program/career major
– The number of technical credit hours is cumulative for
the time the student has been enrolled in that
technical program.
– Technical credit hours may be earned during different
school years and be counted in the cumulative
number of hours for that program.
When To Enroll A Secondary Student:
Secondary students should be entered into
TEDS when the student has enrolled in the
first course in the technical education
program. The student will be enrolled by the
school offering the program in which the
student is enrolled.
• After all Industry Certificates have been
entered for your students, run the Industry
Certificates Report to check your data.
• Only valid Industry Certificates entered into
TEDS by July 31st will be included in the
initial data pulled for the College and Career
Readiness measure.
• Industry Certificate data received after July
31st must be entered into TEDS before the
data is locked at COB on October 1st.
