Perkins V legislation requires the Bureau of Career and Technical Education to annually collect and report, on the Consolidated Annual Report (CAR) to the US Department of Education, verifiable retention and transfer data for all adult and postsecondary programs receiving federal funds. The National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) has created a national system to collect this data that enables the Bureau of Career and Technical Education to respond to the federal reporting requirements under the Perkins Grant, including graduation results both to and from 2-year and 4-year institutions. It should be noted while the PIMS solution can track some data, it cannot track interstate data and report in compliance with this requirement. NSC will also be able to track any secondary career and technical education students into postsecondary programs. Additional bundled (free) services would also allow every high school in PA to potentially utilize the “student tracker” system which would allow schools to research their graduates for location of original enrollments, transfers and graduation and participate in the Electronic Transcript Exchange program, if desired. The collection of data and maintenance of this system will be ongoing.
