Options for Provider Impact Domain

Option 1: EPPs receive a provider impact rating and an overall rating

• Give EPPs a provider impact rating based on the data we have available
• Adjust performance benchmarks to account for fewer third-year teachers in evaluation data

Option 2: EPPs receive neither a provider impact rating nor an overall rating

• Report available provider impact data but do not give EPPs a provider impact rating
• EPPs would still receive ratings for the candidate profile and employment domains but would not

receive an overall rating

Option 3: EPPs receive a provider impact rating but not an overall rating

• Adjust performance benchmarks to account for fewer third-year teachers in evaluation data
• EPPs would receive a rating for each of the scored domains but would not receive an overall rating
