Teacher Workforce Initiative: What We Know About Monterey Bay Area Teachers Monterey Bay Educational Consortium and the Center for the Future of Teaching and Learning May 11, 2004
Teacher Workforce Initiative (TWI) Goal To strengthen the teacher workforce in Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz Counties through a regional, data-driven collaborative among K-18 educational institutions
TWI Primary Objective To build and maintain a regional teacher workforce decision-making system that • illuminates teacher workforce issues: • supply and demand • quality • maintains an ongoing capacity to address these issues; and • facilitates the collection and analysis of current-year data
Question #1. What can we learn about the region’s teacher workforce with 2002-03 data? • Strategy: Replicate SRI analyses to compare region with state • Data • California Basic Educational Data System (CBEDS) • Collected annually from all K-12 teachers, schools, and districts in October • Available for analysis in late summer
Professional Assignment Information Form (PAIF) • Teacher Preparation • Full Credential: completed teacher preparation program and hold a preliminary, clear, professional clear, or life credential • Not Full Credential: university or district intern; pre-intern; or emergency permit or waiver if used in current assignment • Authorized Teaching Area: all areas authorized, regardless of current assignment
Summary of 2002-03 Findings • Teacher certification varies across • subject area • students’ socioeconomic status • Many regional teachers near retirement age • These results parallel California state patterns

Question #2. Do Current-Year Data Reflect 2002-03 Patterns? • Strategy: Collect PAIF data from districts at the same time that it goes to the state • From November 2003 through March 2004, districts worked to be included • Data include 4982 full-time teachers • Traditional and charter schools • 28 districts • 84% of schools • 90% of the teacher population
