I. School of Education Admissions
Admitted Candidates by Division/Department in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 The School of Education offers various degree and credentialing programs through three divisions/departments: The Division of Teacher Education (which includes the Department of Advanced Studies, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, and the Department of Special Education), the Department of Educational Leadership, and the Department of School Counseling and School Psychology. Admissions data from the three most recent academic years shows a continuous decline of over 10% in the total number of admitted applicants to the School of Education. However, the ratio of admitted candidates by program remains consistent; the majority of candidates admitted to programs in the School of Education apply to programs within the Division of Teacher Education, which include one stand-alone Master’s degree, eight Master’s degrees with Preliminary Teaching Credential embedded, and four Credential only programs.

Admitted Candidates by Regional Campus in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 The School of Education serves students throughout locations in Azusa, five regional campuses and online. Candidates are admitted to either an online or face-to-face program at a campus location. Not all programs are offered at every location, and it may be necessary for a candidate to travel to another Southern California location to take their coursework. However, the following data represents the campus or pathway to which the candidates were admitted. The Azusa location continues to have the highest count of admitted candidates, followed by the Murrieta and Orange County regional campuses.

Admitted Candidates by Race/Ethnicity in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 The ethnic and racial diversity profile of Azusa Pacific University’s School of Education reflects an increasing number of candidates who identify as non-white or ethnically diverse. The figure below shows the percentage of admitted candidates who provided their ethnic or racial identify on their application. The percentage of non-white or ethnically diverse applicants exceed 50% for each of the three most recent academic years. In 2018-19, over 66% of applicants to the School of Education identified as non-white or ethnically diverse, with over 39% of those applicants identifying as Hispanic of any race.

Mean Undergraduate GPA for Admitted Candidates by Division/Department in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 CAEP Standard 3.2 and A.3.2 states the minimum criteria is a grade point average of 3.00. As the educator preparation programs offered in the timeframe being examined were all offered at the graduate level, the School of Education uses the undergraduate bachelor’s level GPA at the time of admission as the GPA to be examined. Each of the divisions/departments in the School of Education have mean grade point averages for their programs that are at or above the minimum requirement. The mean for all divisions/departments has increased over the three most recent academic years.

Mean Performance on a Nationally Normed Assessment for Admitted Candidates, 2017-18, 2018-19 and Fall 2019 CAEP Standard 3.2 also requires a group average performance on nationally normed assessments in the top 50 percent of those assessed. Early in the 2019-20 academic year, CAEP recognized the California Basic Skills Test (CBEST) as being substantially equivalent to nationally normed assessments (e.g., SAT, ACT, GRE). Group average performance for candidates who were admitted to Initial Teacher Preparation programs in the School of Education must meet or exceed a mean of 50.2 on the Reading subtest of the CBEST and must meet or exceed a mean of 52.9 on the Math subtest of the CBEST to demonstrate performance in the top 50 percent of those assessed. The scaled scores used for reporting CBEST results range from 20 to 80 for each subtest. The passing score established by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) on each CBEST subtest is a scaled score of 41. A total score (the sum of Reading, Mathematics, and Writing scaled scores) of 123 is required for passing status. It is possible to pass the CBEST with a scaled score on one or two subtests as low as 37, provided that the total score is 123 or higher. It is not possible, however, to pass the CBEST if any subtest score is below 37, regardless of how high the total score may be. Please note: This performance expectation is only required of initial programs and initial programs are only offered by the Division of Teacher Education. So, the data presented are specific to the Division of Teacher Education. In 2017-18 the Division of Teacher Education admitted 525 applicants to Initial Teacher Preparation programs. Official scaled scores of CBEST performance were received for 91.24% (n=479) of admitted candidates. In 2018-19, the Division of Teacher Education admitted 448 applicants to Initial Teacher Preparation programs. Official scaled scores of CBEST performance were received for 86.38% (n=387) of admitted candidates. In the Fall of 2019, the Division of Teacher admitted 170 new students to Initial Teacher Preparation programs. Official scaled scores of CBEST performance were received for 85.29% (n=145) of admitted candidates. For the remaining percentages of admitted candidates for each year the CBEST score report did not include scaled scores or the Basic Skills required was met through means other than the CBEST. The mean performance on the CBEST Reading subtest for 2017-18 admitted candidates with CBEST scaled scores was 52.00, for 2018-19 admitted candidates it was 52.04 and for Fall 2019 admitted candidates it was 54.33. This ranges from 1.76 to 4.09 scaled score points above the 50.24 mark that represents the top 50 percent of those assessed. The mean performance of the CBEST Math subtest for 2017-18 admitted candidates with CBEST scaled scores was 53.44, for 2018-19 admitted candidates it was 52.85, and for Fall 2019 admitted candidates it was 56.52. This ranges from 0.63 to 4.30 scaled score points above the 52.22 mark that represents the top 50 percent of those assessed.

II. School of Education Enrolled Candidates
Enrolled Candidates by Division/Department in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 Overall candidate enrollment has decreased in the School of Education by 7.18% (N=119) from 2016-17 to 2017-18, and by an additional 8.39% (N=129) from 2017-18 to 2018-19. Despite the drop in enrollment numbers, the ratio of candidates enrolling in the three divisions/departments of the School of Education remains consistent.

Enrolled Candidates by Regional Campus in 2016-17, 2017-18, & 2018-19 Location of enrollment is determined by identifying at which location a candidate completed the majority of his or her coursework in each academic year. Enrollment across Azusa, the five regional campuses and online has remained consistent, with Azusa having the highest number of enrolled candidates, and Murrieta having the second highest. The number of candidates enrolled in programs online has fallen in 2018-19; this may be due to the work the Division of Teacher Education has done to embed emphasis courses (which are offered online) within the program to improve completion rates.

Credentials Recommended by Level and Area in 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 The School of Education recommends credentials for candidates who complete credential specific coursework and assessments in the program. In 2017-18, there was a jump in credential recommendations, largely due to an increase in enrollment in the area of Pupil Personnel Services Credentials in the Department of School Counseling and School Psychology and in the area of Multiple and Single Subject Preliminary Teaching Credentials in the Division of Teacher Education.

California Teaching Performance Assessment (CalTPA) Beginning in 2017-18, the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) redeveloped the state-sponsored teaching performance assessment, the California Teaching Performance Assessment (CalTPA). A passing score for this assessment meets one of the requirements for earning a preliminary Multiple or Single Subject Teaching Credential. At Azusa Pacific University, candidates of the Education Specialist Preliminary Teaching Credential are also required to submit their CalTPA assessment; however, they are not required to meet the CTC set passing standard. Instead, if Education Specialist Preliminary Teaching Credential candidates do not pass the CalTPA, they must go through a remediation process with the Division of Teacher Education. The CalTPA was piloted at Azusa Pacific University in the Spring of 2018, and candidates pursuing a Single Subject Preliminary Teaching Credential in Social Studies participated in the assessment. Though all candidates who participated in the CalTPA Pilot received passing scores, the report below shows how they were assessed on the rubrics during this period. Candidates in APUs program scored higher than other Social Science candidates throughout the state in Instructional Cycle 1, but lower in Instructional Cycle 2.

The CalTPA was field tested in 2018-19. For CalTPA 2018-19, APU Preliminary Credential Single Subject candidates registered for Instructional Cycles 1 and 2 per their subject. Candidates pursuing Preliminary Multiple Subject or Education Specialist Credentials were required to register and take either the Multiple Subject Literary1/Math2 or the Multiple Subject Math1/Literary2. Passing scores for the field test were: Instructional Cycle 1 (8 rubrics): A final cut score of 19 points with one score of 1 allowed and Instructional Cycle 2 (9 rubrics): A final cut score of 21 with one score of 1 allowed. For many of the Single Subject areas, candidates in APUs program scored slightly higher than other candidates throughout the state in Instructional Cycle 1, but lower in Instructional Cycle 2. However, for the Multiple Subject areas, APU candidates scored lower that other candidates throughout the state on both Instructional Cycles. This difference in the Multiple Subject areas is likely due to the inclusion of Education Specialist candidates who generally score lower on the Instructional Cycles due to student teaching and intern placements that included added challenges to completing the CalTPA.

The CSET Exam is designed to measure a candidate’s skills, knowledge and abilities in a specified subject area. Based on the selected subject area, examinees are required to complete the number of exams in that area. In the School of Education Preliminary Teaching Credential Programs, candidates tested most frequently in the subject areas represented in the table below. Candidates are required to show subject matter proficiency for their credential area prior to enrolling in Clinical Practice. The following tables are collected from Pearson’s Results Analyzer and provide the Best Attempt pass rates for both APU test takers and California State test takers over 3 years. The charts show a comparison of pass rates for APU test takers and all California test takers for the exams. Areas not included below had counts too small to be considered.

Praxis II: School Psychologist Exam The Praxis Data are provided by the Educational Testing Services (ETS) in an annual report created in September of each academic year, respectively. The reports represent data from all students who attempted the Praxis School Psychologist Exam (5402) between September 1 through August 31 of each respective academic year (i.e. 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19), and who requested their scores be reported to Azusa Pacific University School of Education. The Program Required Score for passing is a minimum of 147. The average performance range for students reporting to APU is also lower than the average performance range for all test takers all three academic years. Additionally, the California Median score is equal to or higher than the APU Median score in all three academic years. The table below shows a comparison of highest observed scores, median observed scores, and lowest observed scores among APU test takers. There is a slight increase in the highest observed scores over the three-year period between 2016-17 and 2018-19; however, for the median scores, there is a decline. The average performance range was above 147 for all three academic years.

VII. Completion Data Program Completer Feedback on Teaching Performance Expectations (TPEs) The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) administers a completer survey of Preliminary Teacher Credential Programs and shares data with these programs. The data collected through the survey process represent the self-reported individual perceptions of completers of the Multiple Subject, Single Subject, Mild/Moderate, and Moderate/Severe Credential Programs at APU. Individual completers elected to take the survey voluntarily and provided answers under conditions that promised anonymity. Response Rate:
• Multiple Subject Completers: 2016-17 Program Completers had a response rate of 100% (n=69). 2017-18 Program Completers had a response rate of 96.1% (n=74 of 77). 2018-19 Program Completers had a response rate of 87.6% (n=78 of 89).
• Single Subject Completers: 2016-17 Program Completers had a response rate of 91.6% (n=65 of 71). 2017-18 Program Completers had a response rate of 98.0% (n=97 or 99). 2018-19 Program Completers had a response rate of 96.6% (n=84 of 87).
• Education Specialist Completers: 2016-17 Program Completers had a response rate of 94.6% (n=106 of 112). 2017-18 Program Completers had a response rate of 96.0% (n=72 of 75). 2018-19 Program Completers had a response rate of 97.5% (n=77 of 79).
Analysis of Data from Preliminary Teacher Credential Program Completers:
• Consistently across the past three years, a higher percentage of APU Multiple Subject, Single Subject and Education Specialist Program Completers indicated that overall their teacher preparation program was very effective at developing the skills or tools they needed to become a teacher than Program Completers statewide. Additionally, when we consider Program Completers who responded with either very effective or effective, only APU Education Specialist Completers from 2018-19 had a slightly lower percentage than Program Completers statewide (86.3% compared to 89.7%).
• Additionally, when we look across the TPEs for the past three years a higher percentage of APU Program Completers indicate being very well prepared compared to Completers Statewide. This is also true when we consider completers who indicated being very well prepared and well prepared together. The only exception to this is with the Developing as a Professional Educator TPE and Education Specialist Completers from 2018-19 where 83.0% of APU Completers indicated being either very well prepared or well prepared compared to 83.1% of Completers statewide.
• 2018-19 APU Multiple Subject Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in higher percentages in the area of the Creating and Maintaining Effective Environments for Student Learning TPE (65.4%). Smaller percentages of 2018-19 APU Multiple Subject Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in the areas of the Engaging and Supporting All Students in Learning TPE (52.3%) and the Developing as a Professional Educator TPE (50.5%).
• 2018-19 APU Single Subject Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in higher percentages in the area of the Creating and Maintaining Effective Environments for Student Learning TPE (63.1%). Smaller percentages of 2018-19 APU Single Subject Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in the areas of the Understanding and Organizing Subject Matter for Student Learning TPE (48.9%) and the Developing as a Professional Educator TPE (46.8%).
• 2018-19 APU Education Specialist Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in higher percentages in the area of the Creating and Maintaining Effective Environments for Student Learning TPE (63.0%). Smaller percentages of 2018-19 APU Education Specialist Completers indicated they felt very well prepared in the area the Developing as a Professional Educator TPE (54.9%) and the Understanding and Organizing Subject Matter for Student Learning TPE (55.8%).

Program Completer Feedback on California Administrator Performance Expectations (CAPEs) The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) administers a completer survey of Administrator Preparation Programs and shares data with these programs. The data collected through the survey process represent the self-reported individual perceptions of completers of the Preliminary Administrative Services Credential (PASC) Program at APU. Individual completers elected to take the survey voluntarily and provided answers under conditions that promised anonymity. 2016-17 Program Completers who were surveyed in 2017 had a response rate of 100% (n=47). 2017-18 Program Completers who were surveyed in 2018 had a response rate of 95.7% (n=45 of 47). 2018-19 Program Completers who were surveyed in 2019 had a response rate of 96.4% (n=27 of 28). Analysis of Data from Preliminary Administrative Service Credential Completers:
• In 2018-19, 57.1% of APU program completers indicated the Preliminary Administrative Services Credential Program was very effective at helping them develop the skills and tools they needed to become a school leader, which is lower than the 67.4% of program completers statewide who indicated their program was very effective. 90.5% of APU program completers indicated the Preliminary Administrative Services Credential Program was effective or very effective, which is also lower than the 94.2% of program completers statewide who indicated their program was effective or very effective.
• As we examine responses to the CAPEs in 2018-19, the largest percentage of APU program completers indicated they were very well prepared in Visionary Leadership (63.9%) with preparation in Instructional Leadership following just slightly behind (63.0% indicating very well prepared). The lowest percentage of APU program completers indicating they were very well prepared was 48.5% in Organizational and Systems Leadership.

Indicators of Teaching Effectiveness California is a two-tier credential state. Upon completion of the initial teacher preparation program, individuals are recommended for their Preliminary Teaching Credential. During the first years of teaching, the completer of the initial teacher preparation program must participate in a Teacher Induction program. To complete the Teacher Induction program, the teacher must progress toward mastery of the California Standards for the Teaching Profession and must reflect the learning and professional growth goals indicated within an Individualized Learning Plan. Teachers are not able to complete a Teacher Induction program and be recommended for a Clear Teaching Credential without demonstrating teaching effectiveness. Teachers must progress to a Clear Teaching Credential within 5 years of recommendation for their Preliminary Teaching Credential. In a limited number of instances, teachers may be approved for an extension to their Preliminary Teaching Credential to allow additional time for them to complete a Teacher Induction program and be recommended for a Clear Teaching Credential. The initial teacher preparation programs review the percentages of their completers who have progressed to Clear Teaching Credentials to provide information around employment milestones and teaching effectiveness. In 2011-12, the Multiple Subject Credential program had 104 program completers and 81.7% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Single Subject Credential program had 110 program completers and 74.5% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Mild/Moderate Credential program had 124 program completers and 84.7% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Moderate/Severe Credential program had 42 program completers and 95.2% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year. In 2012-13, the Multiple Subject Credential program had 84 program completers and 90.5% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Single Subject Credential program had 111 program completers and 78.4% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Mild/Moderate Credential program had 119 program completers and 87.4% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Moderate/Severe Credential program had 34 program completers and 91.2% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential program before the start of the 2019-20 academic year. In 2013-14, the Multiple Subject Credential program had 98 program completers and 82.7% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Single Subject Credential program had 90 program completers and 82.2% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Mild/Moderate Credential program had 91 program completers and 81.3% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential before the start of the 2019-20 academic year; the Moderate/Severe Credential program had 39 program completers and 92.3% of these completers demonstrated teaching effectiveness and progressed to a Clear Credential program before the start of the 2019-20 academic year.

To complete the CASC program the administrator must document competence in at least one area of each California Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (CPSEL). Administrators must progress to a Clear Administrative Services Credential within 5 years of recommendation for their Preliminary Administrative Services Credential.

i The Azusa Pacific University School Default Rates data was retrieved from the U.S. Department of Education website under Default Prevention and Category. U.S. Department of Education Official
School Cohort Default Rate Search: https://nslds.ed.gov/nslds/nslds_SA/defaultmanagement/search_cohort_2015_CY.cfm
The rates are reflective as of 9/26/2018, and show the default rate across the entire university. For schools having 30 or more borrowers entering repayment in a fiscal year, the school’s cohort default rate is
the percentage of a school’s borrowers who enter repayment on certain William D. Ford Federal Direct Loans (Direct Loans) and Federal Family Education Loans (FFELs) during that fiscal year and default
(or meet the other specified condition) before the end of the second fiscal year following the fiscal year that the borrower entered repayment. To provide context for the Cohort Default Rate (CDR) we
include enrollment data (students enrolled at any time during the year) and a corresponding percentage (borrowers entering repayment divided by that enrollment figure). While there is no direct
relationship between the timing of when a borrower entered repayment (October 1 through September 30) and any particular enrollment year, for the purpose of these data, we have chosen to use the
academic year ending on the June 30 prior to the beginning of the cohort year (e.g. FY 2015 CDR Year will use 2013-14 enrollment). ii U.S. Department of Education, Default Rates by State/National Territory, data calculated August 18,2018. https://www2.ed.gov/offices/OSFAP/defaultmanagement/staterates.pdf
