  2. Agenda • Why bother • VTEA requirements • Students • Money • Data • What data? • Data sources • Ways of Collecting the data • Auditable sources

  3. Choices • Academic/Fiscal Year • Enrolled: July 1 – June 30 • Use June 30 as exit • Employment: Q4, October - December • Retention: Q4, October - December & Q2, April – June • Second & fourth quarters after enrollment • Enrolled: July 1 – June 30 • Use last quarter enrolled as exit quarter • Employment: always 2nd quarter after exit quarter • Retention: always 2nd & 4th quarters after exit quarter

  4. Choices using 2003 • Academic/Fiscal Year (2002-03 cohort) • Enrolled: July 1, 2002 – June 30, 2003 • Employment: October-December (Q4), 2003 • Retention: April – June (Q2), 2004 • Second & (second & fourth) quarters after enrollment * Note: Retention is both second and fourth quarters

  5. Data matching • 2002-2003 enrollees • Not re-enrolled in 2003-2004 • 2003-2004 earnings • Waited until 2004 Q2 was in • Either match data • October 2003 – June 2004 • July 2002 – June 2004 • Single data match for either method • CA does forty quarters to get prewages

  6. Pros & Cons Fiscal year • Pros • Uses the same time period for all exitors • Labor market conditions same • Same period for transfers • Cons • Uses Fall / Winter months (Oct-Dec) – think CA v MN • Retention based on those using Apr-June (retail?) • Fall exitors at 10-12 mo. vs. 4-6 mo. for Spring exitors • Natural decline in UI base wage file (3% per year)

  7. Pros & Cons Second and fourth quarter after exit • Pros • Uses the same elapsed time after exit • Evens out seasonal labor market conditions • Reduces problems due decline in UI base wage file • Cons • Sounds complicated • Labor market conditions not same • Same period for transfers

  8. California numbers 0203 • Current method • 79.2% Employed • 83.5% Retained • Fiscal • 72.9% Employed • 91.2% Retained • 2 & 4 quarters after • 73.1% Employed • 91.2% Retained • Long term employment (employed x retained) • 66.1% - 66.5% - 66.7%
