  6. Step Three • From the listing now select the concentration that has been identified via the data profile as “needing an improvement plan”.

  7. Explanation • So, how do you know which concentration is in need of an improvement plan? • You need to look very closely at your school profile data report • Look at the very last column of your Excel spreadsheet entitled, “Improvement Plan Submitted” • If you have an NR that means none is required. • If the field is blank, you need to submit an improvement package

  8. Sample Data

  9. Close-up view Notice which lines need to have an improvement package submitted

  10. Step Four • Now that the concentration has been selected you can begin working • For this example I am going to use Phillip Barbour’s E-Business Publishing • This is just for an example – they may or may not need to submit for this concentration (demonstration only)

  11. Lets take a Look Notice your navigation tools Notice that the most recent data is automatically populated for you

  12. Lets take a Look Notice your workspace for the cause or causes of the identified deficiency Notice your workspace for up to three strategies, timelines per strategy, and person responsible/assigned to a particular strategy. Please be sure to fill out the document completely per strategy.. So if you have two strategies, fill in all of the info for two…if you have one… etc.
