Progress: Note: Targets were generally exceeded, but the target for scholars supported per million not met as college tuition rates have increased sharply, making the target impossible to reach.

Status: Target exceeded
Progress: FY 2000-2002 data are based on actual numbers using the new electronic reporting system. Previous numbers were based on estimates made from a small number of prospects. The performance targets were exceeded due to collaborative efforts between university programs and aggressive recruitment by state vocational rehabilitation agency HR departments. Explanation: Next data available will be for FY2003 and will be available in April 2005. |
Additional Source Information: Annual grantee reporting form. Frequency: Annually. Collection Period: 2002 - 2003 Data Available: April 2005 Validated By: No Formal Verification. Data supplied by grantees. Limitations: We are using a new reporting system, which is being refined. Same as indicator 1.1 |

|
Status: Target not met
Progress: FY 2000-2002 data are based on actual numbers using the new electronic reporting system. Previous numbers were based on estimates made from a small number of prospects. In light of the recent high turnover among state VR counselors, we believe that the trend has been downward, and may continue going down until turnover rates stabilize; and/or the recruiting pool increases. Explanation: In FY 2000, RSA began an evaluation of the Training program that will collect data on each state's CSPD current standard and the number of staff that meet that standard. Many external factors could affect the ongoing collection of data for this indicator. |
Additional Source Information: Annual Evaluation. Ongoing collection could be through the In-Service Training program's annual performance report. Frequency: Other. Collection Period: 2002 - 2003 Data Available: April 2005 Validated By: No Formal Verification. Data would be supplied through external RSA contractor. No formal verification procedure applied. |
