Performance Measures: MCCCD Operational Definitions (cont.) 5 MCCCD uses student course taking behavior to determine student program assignment Courses are organized by prefix and are assigned to one, and only one, 6 digit CIP (Classification of Instruction Program) code – NOT program This system allows us to see how may concentrators we have in a particular field of study, NOT Program * Understanding the concentrator definition and how MCCCD ‘operationalizes’ the definition is key to correctly interpret all Perkins data

DES Data-Sharing Agreement 11 The current agreement for Perkins is with the Unemployment Insurance (UI) division of DES. In the current process, we send UI a file of student data, and UI responds with wage data for the students they can find/match in the identified time period. UI is only able to provide wage data. Research has begun to determine if another unit of DES would be able to provide sector or SOC code data. Internal efforts to date, and efforts of other states will be reviewed.
