  1. A Survey of 500 Registered Voters in the State of Oklahoma on the CareerTech System Margin of error: +/- 4.3% Surveys Conducted May 13-16, 2013 by

  2. Demographics Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  3. How Do You Receive Oklahoma News Newspaper is a more important source of information in Oklahoma than in other areas of the nation. However, this is the first time we have seen online the equivalent of newspaper in the state. (On this study last year, it was 21% Newspaper; 15% online). We also see a continued slippage of radio as a source. Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  4. Frequency Of Listening To Sports Radio Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  5. Attention Paid To Bedlam Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  6. Thunder Games Watched/Attended Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  7. Taken Course at CT? More than a third of Oklahoma voters have had a direct experience with a CareerTech. More than 60% see themselves as having either a personal relationship or a relationship through a family member. We should never forget that we can reach a tremendous number of Oklahomans just by communicating with those being served. Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  8. Heard of CareerTech System 38% Yes vs. 61% No Name awareness of ”CareerTech” has taken a jump this year.

  9. Heard Of CareerTechSystem -By Income We continue to see that the transformation from “Vo” to “Career” is further along with higher income voters.

  10. Heard of CareerTechSystem - Participants Earning +80k Measured Over Time

  11. Heard of CareerTech/Vo-Tech 95% Yes vs. 4% No Oklahomans recognize CareerTech almost universally when told it was formerly known as Vo-Tech.

  12. CareerTechJob Performance The job performance numbers took another significant jump. (You might recall, in 2010-2011 we were seeing a decline in opinion about all government related entities). Notice, very little partisan difference. 28% Excellent vs. 35% Good vs. 7% Only Fair vs. 3% Poor vs. 26% Unable to Rate

  13. CareerTechJob Performance -By Information Source Those getting information from newspapers (a group decreasing in size) gives CT the most positive ratings – though the numbers are stellar regardless of information source.

  14. CareerTechJob PerformanceBy Personal Experience Those with a personal experience with CareerTech give it better ratings than those who have not taken a course.

  15. CareerTechJob Performance-By Bedlam Interest While the advertising it is not necessarily the only variable, we do see that those who pay attention to Bedlam give CareerTech higher marks than those who do not.

  16. State Money Spent On CareerTechIs AGood Investment 60% Strongly Agree vs. 24% Somewhat Agree vs. 3% Somewhat Disagree vs. 2% Strongly Disagree vs. 11% Undecided While down a bit from last year, we still have six in ten Oklahomans “strongly” agreeing with this statement. Notice Republicans are even more in agreement.

  17. State Money Spent On CareerTechIs Good Investment By Region Support for investment in CareerTech spans all parts of the state – the dip in Tulsa has been consistent since the first year we conducted the survey.

  18. State Money Spent On OCTS Is Good Investment -By Income While still overwhelmingly positive, we do still see a slight dip among the state’s more affluent voters.

  19. OCTS Is A Good Investment For State Money - Participants Earning +80k Measured Over Time This most recent fluctuation should not be a concern as the sample size is small. However, it does show that we are not gaining ground over the past five years.

  20. State Money Spent On OCTSIs A Good Investment Any correlation with agreement with this question and the non-Bedlam sports advertising is not conclusive.

  21. Describe CareerTech CareerTech is not fully defined. A third cannot name anything and another third default to an abstract “good” type of response.

  22. Describe CareerTech

  23. Seen/Read/Heard About CareerTech System 58% Yes vs. 38% No vs. 3% Undecided The overall awareness bounced back strongly this year.

  24. Seen/Read/HeardAnything About CareerTech System Those with children in the home are the most likely to recall something from CareerTech.

  25. Seen/Read/Heard Anything About CareerTech System By Region As has historically been the case, it is more difficult to reach voters in the Tulsa media market with messages.

  26. Seen/Read/Heard About CareerTech System By Bedlam Interest Again, we see a correlation with those interested in the Bedlam series.

  27. Seen/Read/Heard About CareerTech System When it comes to awareness, we do see a connection with the sports advertsing.

  28. Seen/Read/Heard Anything OfCareerTech -By Income Clearly, higher income voters are getting more contact.

  29. What Have You Seen/Read/Heard? 2% of respondents gave various miscellaneous responses while another 30% were not sure.

  30. What Have You Seen/Read/Heard?

  31. Effect of Seen/Read/Heard 38% Greatly enhance; 33% Somewhat enhance; 1% Somewhat diminish; 4% Greatly diminish; 22% Undecided The number has come down a bit from last year’s stratospheric number, but it is still solid. Women are more receptive than men as are those at the lower end of the income scale.

  32. Seen/Read/Heard “Elevating Our Economy/Careers/Sound Investment” 39% Yes vs. 53% No vs. 8% Undecided The move to “Your Sound Investment, Our Solid Return” has made recall increase and corrected the stagnation we had seen sitting in.

  33. Seen/Read/Heard “Elevating Our Economy/Careers” By Bedlam Interest There is no doubt, this effort is making these people hear more about CareerTech.

  34. Seen/Read/Heard Elevating or Investment Again, we do see a correlation with the budget spent on sports advertising.

  35. CareerTech Better Prepares Students 33% Strongly Agree vs. 23% Somewhat Agree vs. 12% Somewhat Disagree vs. 4% Strongly Disagree vs. 20% Neither Agree nor Disagree vs. 7% Undecided This number continues to rise. Men in particular are embracing CareerTech.

  36. CareerTech Better Prepares Students It is interesting that those without children in the home are the most likely to agree with this statement – this has been the case each year. We also see more disagreement among mothers – though a plurality still agrees.

  37. CareerTech Better Prepares Students By Region

  41. More Than An Alternative To College 60% Strongly agree; 24% Somewhat agree; 8% Somewhat disagree; 1% Strongly disagree; 7% Undecided This is the first time we have asked this question, and it is enlightening. People see value in what CareerTech is doing for the state – not just for what it does for those for whom college may not be an option.

  42. Why CareerTech Is For College Bound Students Also 19% Science Degrees; 12% 75 Hrs. of credit; 15% Lower Drop-out rate; 32% Better academically; 22% Undecided The public embraces the idea that CareerTech helps students perform better in college.

We do see that saying almost half of the state’s high school students participate in CareeTech pops among those with a child in the home.

  44. Most Enhances Views Of CareerTech We also see the participation of high school students pop among those who disagree that current spending is a good investment, those who rate the job performance as only fair, and those getting information through online sources.

  45. Awareness FFA And DECA Offered In High Schools 55% Aware; 43% Not aware; 2% Undecided Just over half of Oklahomans claim to be aware of these high school offerings. It is higher among mothers.

  46. Effect of Knowledge Of HS Programs By Job Performance Numbers may not add-up to 100% due to refusals.

  47. Opinion Of CareerTech With FFA Program Addition 42% Greatly enhance; 28% Somewhat enhance; 2% Somewhat diminish; 1% Greatly diminish; 27% Undecided The FFA brand helps enhance the image of CareerTech especially in the rural areas covered by the minor television markets.

  48. Opinion Of CareerTech With Addition Of FFA, DECA, Business Professional Programs 47% Greatly enhance; 29% Somewhat enhance; 1% Somewhat diminish; 0% Greatly diminish; 23% Undecided The inclusion of DECA and business groups really moves numbers in the Tulsa market.
