This metric is part of the Education-to-Workforce (E-W) Indicator Framework, specifically “Outcomes and milestones” which pertain to key outcomes and milestones along the E-W continuum that are strongly associated with individuals achieving economic mobility and security.
This metric (Percentage of students who participate in a work-based learning opportunity before graduation) is a measurement for a key indicator, “(Participation in Work-Based Learning)” and measures whether student credential seekers participate in an internship, work study, cooperative education, apprenticeship program, or other work-based learning opportunities.
K12/PS - Percentage of students who participate in a work-based learning opportunity before graduation
Calculating a Response:
Use the following CEDS elements to determine the school year for which the data will be measured for K12 students:
1. School Year = most recent school year, representing July 1 through June 30
Use the following CEDS elements to determine the universe of K12 students:
1. Pull all unique K12 students which is determined by using a unique Person Identifier where Has Person Identifier Type = Student Identifierand Has Person Identification System = State
2. Where the K12 Student:
a. is associated with a State Education Agency through the Organization Identifier where Has Organization Identification System = SEA and Has Organization Identifier Type = State Agency Identifier
b. is associated with a Local Education Agency through the Organization Identifier where Has Organization Identification System = SEA or LEA and Has Organization Identifier Type = Local Education Agency Identifier
c. is associated with a K12 school through the Organization Identifier where Has Organization Identification System = SEA or LEA or School and Has Organization Identifier Type = School Identifier
d. Has Role = K12 Student
Use the following CEDS elements to determine the school year for which the data will be measured for postsecondary students:
1. Academic Year Designator = most recent school year, representing July 1 through June 30
Use the following CEDS elements to determine the universe of postsecondary students:
1. Pull all unique postsecondary students which is determined by using a unique Person Identifier where Has Person Identifier Type = Student Identifierand Has Person Identification System = State
2. Where the postsecondary student:
a. is associated with a Postsecondary Institution through the Organization Identifier where the Organization Identifier Type = Office of Postsecondary Education Identifier
b. Has Role = PS Student
From the universe of students, narrow the list to the students who participate in a work-based learning opportunity before graduation using the following CEDS elements:
1. Has Program Type = Work-based Learning Opportunities
2. Has Work-based Learning Opportunity Type ≠ null
3. Has Program Participation Status = Active, Exited, or Withdrew
- Program Participation Exit Date ≤ the students Projected Graduation Date
For K12 Students:
Divide the total number of students who participate in work-based learning experiences before graduation by the total number of students. Multiply by 100.
For Postsecondary Students:
Divide the total number of students who participate in work-based learning experiences before graduation by the total number of students. Multiply by 100.
