DEFINITIONS

CTE Participant
A CTE participant is any student that completes and passes at least one CTE course worth at least one credit in a CTE program.
CTE Concentrator
A CTE concentrator is a student that completes and passes at least different two courses worth at least one credit each in a single CTE program. Internships and cooperative education are not included in determining concentrator status.
Program Completer
A program completer is a student that passes all the required courses in a single CTE program having earned a minimum of one credit in each required course. Internships and cooperative education courses are not included in determining program completion status.
Technical Skills Assessment
The Technical Skills Assessment (TSA) is a comprehensive end-of-program assessment designed to certify a student’s understanding and mastery of industry-validated knowledge and skill. TSA assessments are not credential assessments.
Industry-recognized Credentials
Credentials are third-party issued and industry-recognized and widely accepted certificates, licenses, and other credentials that signify a student’s mastery of industry-validated knowledge and skill. These credentials are not issued by ADE.

All data in this profile is disaggregated by campus type and is displayed as “CTED Central Campus” or “Central + Satellite”. CTED Central campus data includes only the data reported by the campuses in the central campuses list above. Central + Satellite data includes data reported by the campuses in both the central campuses and member districts lists above. Data is deduplicated, meaning that if a student is reported by multiple entities, they are counted only once wherever possible.


GRADUATION RATE

The graduation rate is calculated using the student’s 4-year cohort as a base. The graduation rate is calculated as the number of participants or concentrators that graduated with their cohort divided by the total number of participants or concentrators in the cohort, respectively. Graduation rate is calculated using the 2024 cohort in this Profile.

PROGRAM COMPLETION

The program completion rate is calculated as the number of students in the cohort that completed a CTE program divided by the number of students in the same cohort that enrolled in a CTE program. The term “completed a CTE program” means the student has passed the minimum required number of courses in the program having earned at least one credit in each required course. Program completion is calculated using 2025 cohort in this Profile.

Empty cells in the table below indicate that the program did not have program completers at the campus type(s) specified in that column, but that campus type may have had students enrolled in the program.

Alternative Method

An alternative method to calculating program completion rate is to divide the number of program completers by the number of students that completed/passed at least the first course in the program. This method discounts any student that did not pass at least the first course of a program, but more accurately portrays program completion and retention among students that are attempting to complete the program.

TECHNICAL SKILLS ASSESSMENT

The CTE technical skills assessment, or TSA, is a comprehensive end-of-program assessment designed to certify a student’s understanding and mastery of industry-validated knowledge and skill. TSA assessments are not credential assessments, but rather students are issued a certificate of passing by the Arizona Department of Education and endorsed by the Arizona CTE Quality Commission.

Technical Skills Assessment Pass Rates

TSA pass rates are calculated as the number of students in the reporting year cohort that attempted the TSA for their CTE program and passed it divided by the number of students in the same cohort that attempted the TSA for their program. TSA pass rates include all students who attempt the TSA regardless of CTE concentrators status.

Technical Skills Assessment Attempt Rates

The attempt rate for technical skills assessment is calculated as the number of CTE concentrators in the reporting year cohort who attempt the TSA for their program divided by the total number of CTE concentrators in the cohort. Attempt rate is calculated using CTE concentrators rather than all students as students are typically expected to attempt the TSA after becoming a CTE concentrator.

TSA Pass and Attempt Rates by Program

Pass Rates

TSA pass rates are calculated as the number of students in the reporting year cohort that attempted the TSA for their CTE program and passed it divided by the number of students in the same cohort that attempted the TSA for their program.

POSTGRADUATION PLACEMENT

The postgraduation placement of CTE concentrators is calculated as the number of eligible CTE concentrators that have some form of placement divided by the number of eligible CTE concentrators that responded to a placement survey administered by their CTED or school district. CTE concentrators are considered eligible for a placement survey if they (1) are a CTE concentrator, and (2) left secondary education in the reporting year. There are five placement categories: enrollment in postsecondary education, enrollment in a postsecondary advanced training program, military service, participation in a national service program or the Peace Corps, or employment. The placement survey also collects “relatedness” of a student’s postgraduation placement to their high school CTE program.

INDUSTRY CREDENTIALS

Attainment of portable, industry-recognized and validated credentials, certificates, and licenses are a unique measure of CTE program success. These credentials, which are offered by third-party credentialing organizations, signal to employers that CTE students have mastered a specific set of knowledge, skills, and abilities as outlined by their CTE program.
