2022 Accountability Measures

MUW School of Education 2022

The Council for Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) requires four annual accountability measures that demonstrate accountability and provide information on Mississippi University for Women’s (MUW) School of Education’s initial licensure programs impact, outcomes, and performance to share publicly with stakeholders, teacher candidates, and potential students.

MUW’s School of Education and fourteen other public and private higher education institutions annually submit data that is used to establish external benchmarks for Educator Preparation Programs (EPPs).  Included in this data is statewide data from the Mississippi Public School system.  This information is compiled in an Impact Report, developed to help institutions comply with CAEPs Annual Accountability Measures.  This report, along with other data collected within the School of Education, is used in making data driven decisions in the EPP’s Continuous Improvement Process.  Data gathered for these measures was collected during the 2021-2022 academic year.
