A Descriptive Analysis of the Illinois Educator Preparation Profiles (IEPP): 2020 Release

Online Submission
The Illinois Educator Preparation Profiles (IEPP) system, housed at the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE), provides public information on the performance of Illinois teacher preparation programs (TPPs) across the state. TPPs are scored on 11 indicators grouped into four domains--candidate selection and completion, knowledge and skills for teaching, performance as classroom teachers, and contribution to state needs. Based on these scores, TPPs are given a designation ranging from exemplary to needs improvement. ISBE will soon use these designations as part of an accountability system for the reauthorization of TPPs. The goal of these analyses was to provide information that might help refine the IEPP for transparency and accountability use; to identify any relationships between features of postsecondary institutions/programs and IEPP outcomes; and to find areas of productive difference within postsecondary institutions/programs, which might lead to cross-program collaboration. In this report, we examine the first release of data from the IEPP, the 2020 cohort.
