Educator Preparation Stakeholders Survey
In an effort to strengthen teaching and bolster student achievement in Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) annually administers surveys to:
    1. Supervising practitioners who worked with a teacher candidate enrolled in a Massachusetts teacher preparation program,
    2. Hiring principals who hire teachers that have recently completed a teacher preparation program for Initial licensure,
    3. Individuals who completed a Massachusetts teacher preparation program, and
    4. Individuals who completed a Massachusetts teacher preparation program and completed their first year of teaching in a Massachusetts public school.
These surveys are intended to grant access to perceptions of teacher readiness in the Commonwealth to both preparation providers and the general public. Because data from these surveys is used for public transparency, as one source of evidence in DESE's educator preparation program reviews, and for the preparation providers themselves to inform their continuous improvement efforts, DESE is invested in the long-term development of statistically valid and reliable instruments.
