5 Introduction to the Application Process Purpose and Overview The program review and approval process has two purposes: providing assurance to the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) that state requirements for educator preparation are met, and demonstrating program efficacy and a commitment to continuous improvement. These purposes are achieved through a two stage approval process that begins with a consultation with appropriate consultants in the Office of Professional Preparation Services (OPPS), followed by the preparation and submission of an application. The two approval stages are summarized below: Initial Approval Full Approval Initial approval is granted based on: review of initial application approval of appropriate claims and key assessments The program is required to collect and analyze data over a four year period leading to full approval. Any program changes based on annual data analysis initiated during this period must be reported to the OPPS. Full approval is granted four years after initial approval, based on: analysis of data collected demonstration of fulfillment of claims Ongoing approval will be based on national accreditation through the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) and OPPS monitoring. Programs are expected to continue collecting and analyzing data on program efficacy. Application Description The application is divided into two sections, which allow educator preparation programs (EPPs) to present a detailed overview of the program and a plan for defining and assessing the program outcomes. By clearly articulating program claims along with the assessments used to review the claims, EPPs will be able to focus on improving their program. The first section is the Program Overview, which provides a rationale and context for creating the new program, defines the program s coursework and alignment to program requirements specified in i of the Revised School Code and the Michigan-Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (MI-InTASC) standards, describes the program s mentoring and support structures, and makes clear the program s capacity to deliver high quality coursework. The section concludes with a statement of program assurances. The second section is the Program Efficacy Plan, which delineates intended program outcomes in the form of claim statements directly aligned to SBE and MI-InTASC 5 P age
6 standards, as well as how standards are assessed. Claims are statements or assertions made about the accomplishments of program completers, and should be written in a way that is measurable. EPPs are required to identify key assessments to measure fulfillment of these claims and to attach associated rubrics or scoring guides as applicable, and to draw on multiple measures in assessing program efficacy. In providing its assessments within the Program Efficacy Plan, the program should describe its assessments in such a way that a reasonable person would conclude: Yes, it makes sense the measures selected are fitting, apt, and appropriate to test the claims. It makes sense, based on these measures, the claims are (or could be expected to be) true. In addition, it must make clear what level of performance it regards as sufficient and why the standard or criterion of success makes sense. See CAEP, pg. 18 at: Key assessments directly measure candidate performance toward fulfillment of specific outcomes. Some examples of key assessments may include portfolios, capstone projects, work samples, case studies, lesson plans, and examinations. For more on strengths and limitations of different kinds of assessments that may be used to measure program efficacy, see Appendix III of the CAEP Evidence Guide, pg at: Initial Approval Initial approval is granted upon successful review of the program application. EPPs will collect data related to their claims using the key assessments for four years to determine the efficacy of the program. Any program changes based on annual data analysis initiated during this period must be reported to the OPPS see Amendments below. Full Approval After four years, EPPs will submit a request for full approval which includes a report on progress toward fulfillment of the program claims as well as any program changes made in response to analysis of key assessment data. Full approval is granted upon successful review of the progress report demonstrating fulfillment of program claims included with a letter signed by the Dean/Director requesting full approval. Once full approval is granted, ongoing approval is based on national accreditation through the CAEP and OPPS monitoring. 6 P age
7 Timelines/Fees New program applications may be submitted between September 1 and April 30 of each academic year. EPPs will receive an invoice when a completed application is received. Reviews will be conducted once payment is received. All program application revisions must be submitted within 6 months of the OPPS consultant feedback. EPPs not responding within 6 months will be required to re-apply and wait for the next review cycle. Documentation for full approval must be submitted by June 30 of the academic year in which it is due, and will be given first priority for OPPS review. Amendments There are two types of amendments: slightly amended and significantly amended. EPPs may apply for a SLIGHTLY amended program if the modifications are very minor, and in no way impact program claims. For a slight amendment, the EPP must submit the following: a) A letter signed by the Dean/Director explaining/detailing the changes and rationale for changes; and b) Relevant candidate advising sheets and/or catalog pages documenting the amendment(s). EPPs must apply for a SIGNIFICANTLY amended program if modifications alter the manner in which the program fulfills its claims, or modifications are made to the claims themselves. EPPs seeking approval for a significantly amended program must be submitted through the application process. All program changes/modifications during initial approval and after full approval must be approved by the MDE. Contact the OPPS with questions pertaining to specific program amendments.
