Understanding the Data
Find a complete summary of the source for each metric and how to collect it in the document “Data Collection and Reporting Strategies for Momentum Points” at: http://doingwhatmatters.cccco.edu/LaunchBoard/Resources.aspx

Understanding the Data
Automatically Calculated Metrics
• Items drawn from the Chancellor’s Office directly reflect what was submitted for ARCC reporting (issues include reporting non-Chancellor’s Office approved certificates and TOP code inconsistencies)
• Items populated by Cal-PASS Plus include information from K-12 and four-year partners that submit their data (issues include lack of participation, years with missing data, and accuracy of the crosswalk of codes between segments)
• Information on current and projected job openings and regional wages by occupation are provided by EMSI and are drawn from thousands of sources (issues include college’s familiarity with and ability to interpret labor market information)
14California Community Colleges – Chancellor’s Office | 112 Colleges | 72 Districts | 2.6 Million Students
Understanding the Data
Automatically Calculated Metrics
• Wage information from EDD, pulled directly from the Salary Surfer, are statewide, five-year averages (issues include lack of specificity for program assessment and absence of some categories of workers such as the self-employed and those who leave the state)
• Employment information from EDD (issues include absence of some categories of workers listed above)
• Employment in field of study, wage gains in field of study, and third-party credentials are populated by the CTE Outcomes Survey (issues include the limited number of responses and lack of participation by colleges) – find out details at http://www.santarosa.edu/cteos/
15California Community Colleges – Chancellor’s Office | 112 Colleges | 72 Districts | 2.6 Million Students
Understanding the Data
Locally Gathered Metrics
• Appear only to the Common Metrics Tab, and constitute 12 of the 70 total metrics displayed in the Program Snapshot and Common Metrics tabs (of the twelve locally-gathered metrics, three were not chosen by any grantee, so will not be populated)
• Three items populated by colleges will reflect what local data upload people are able to compile (including college internships and work-based learning, soft skills training, dual enrollment and credit by exam)
• Additional items populated by the Additional Tracking Tool are limited by grantees’ abilities to capture the information (such as contract education, high school articulated courses, high school work-based learning, middle school career awareness activities)

LaunchBoard Implications for IR/IT Offices
The Up Side
• Colleges will have more comprehensive information about CTE program outcomes and context, all in one place (with improvements planned on wage data, labor market information, and third-party certifications)
• Faculty and deans can review information in the LaunchBoard to drive conversations about program improvement both within colleges and across regions, without having to request reports from IR offices
The Down Side
• Reviewing data will likely trigger new types of questions, particularly around TOP codes and reporting non-Chancellor’s Office approved certificates
• Some Common Metrics require support from local colleges to report data
LOCAL DATA COLLECTION
California Community Colleges – Chancellor’s Office | 112 Colleges | 72 Districts | 2.6 Million Students
Local Data Collection for Grantees
The following metrics need to be collected by grantees—sector and regionally-based coordinators that are not directly affiliated with specific colleges.
Local data upload point people, IR, and IT offices are NOT responsible for data collection on these metrics:
• MP 1: Middle school career awareness workshop• MP 6: High school articulated courses• MP 13: High school work-based learning• MP 33: Contract education• MP 34: Metrics developed by grantees
California Community Colleges – Chancellor’s Office | 112 Colleges | 72 Districts | 2.6 Million Students18
Local Data Collection for Upload Point People
The following metrics require support from local data upload point people, IR, or IT offices
• MP 6A: Dual enrollment and credit by exam• MP 19: College soft skills training• MP 27: College internship or workplace learning
Different regional or sector-based grantees picked different metrics, which affects what individual colleges need to collect.

Mapping Metrics to Colleges
Find a complete summary of which metrics need to be collected for which programs, broken out by individual colleges, in the document “Data Collection Items By College” at: http://doingwhatmatters.cccco.edu/Launchboard/Resources.aspx
Note: This list will be updated later in the fall, to reflect metrics that are chosen by grantees receiving SB1070 and CTE Enhancement funds.
