Follow-Up

Q:

In the follow-up data report, if a student is listed multiple times (in more than one CTE program), how does the LEA report the student's follow-up information? 
A:

Report this student only once and choose report under the CTE program that is most closely related to the follow-up placement information.  Then “exclude” all the reminding records for this student.

Training

Q:
Can we have training for local staff that works with eTIGER?  These staff members seldom attain the CTE meetings but are a vital part of completing the reporting task.
A:
Yes, we are working with EIS to address the issues which the local EIS staff has with eTIGER.   This will be online training which will include most common problems.  

Other Questions

Q:
Where can I report a drop-out concentrator?
A:
You may indicate a concentrator as "drop-out" at the "Follow-up Entry" screen column of "Comment".  At the top of "Follow-up Entry" select the projected school year which this drop-out student was expect to graduate .
