Organization


The Annual Performance Report (APR) is organized into four (4) reporting files:

  1. Cover Sheet. ( MS Word)

  2. Performance Report Data Form: Blocks A-C and E2. ( MS Excel)

  3. Performance Report Text Form: Blocks D, E1 and F. ( MS Word)

  4. CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation Form. ( MS Excel)


The Office of Migrant Education (OME) has divided the report into these sections due to the two types of content: text and numerical. The following table summarizes the sections (blocks), the type of mediums (files) being used, and how they are to be submitted. Ultimately, the entire APR (four separate files) will be submitted in a single (one) email to OME.

The table also clarifies that the Cover Sheet and the CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation Form are to be submitted as PDF since they both will contain authorized signatures on them. The Performance Report Data Form and the Performance Report Text Form are to be submitted as they are. For convenience, the Performance Report Data Form (Block A, Block B, Block C and Block E2) has a color coding system to clearly show the type of information you must provide.






Introduction


The College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) is intended to assist migrant and seasonal farmworker students to successfully complete their first academic year of college and to continue at a postsecondary education institution. The legislation that authorizes the CAMP program1 and the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR)2 require each of the funded projects to submit an annual performance report demonstrating that substantial progress has been made towards meeting the approved objectives of the project. In addition, the Department requires grantees to report annually on their progress toward meeting the performance measures established for the ED grant programs under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). The performance reporting forms included here are the tools designated by the Department for grantee reporting.


The CAMP GPRA indicators (program performance measures) are listed below:

Objective 1 of 2: All CAMP students will complete their first academic year at a postsecondary institution in good standing.


Measure 1.1 of 1: The percentage of College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) participants completing the first year of their academic or postsecondary program (desired direction: increase3).

Calculation: This measure is calculated by dividing the number of CAMP first academic year completers (the number of CAMP eligible students who successfully completed their first academic year of college by the end of the current reporting period) by the total number funded, as per the approved application by OME, or the total number actually served (whichever is greater), MINUS the number of persisters (the MS Excel Form is formulated to perform this calculation).


For example:

a. For grantees that actually serve LESS than the number funded to be served or serve exactly the total number funded to be served:


GPRA Measure 1= total number of CAMP first academic year completers


[total no. funded to be served minus total number of persisters]




b. For grantees that actually serve MORE than the number funded to be served.


GPRA Measure 1= total number of CAMP first academic year completers


[total no. actually served minus total number of persisters]




Example:

Year 2

In this example, for grant Year 1, the denominator equals 95 (100 total funded minus 5 persisters). The numerator equals 65 (CAMP first academic year completers), for a success rate” of 65/95 or 68 percent. For grant Year 2, the denominator equals 95 (100 total funded minus 5 persisters). The numerator equals 70 (CAMP first academic year completers), for a success rate of 70/95 or 74 percent.


Objective 2 of 2: A majority of CAMP students who successfully complete their first academic year of college will continue in postsecondary education.

Measure 2.1 of 1: The percentage of College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) participants who, after completing the first academic year of college, continue their postsecondary education (desired direction: increase).

Calculation: This measure is calculated by dividing the number of CAMP first academic year completers who continue their postsecondary education by the total number of CAMP first academic year completers (the MS Excel Form is formulated to perform this calculation).


Example:






Grant Year

Total # of CAMP first academic year completers



Total # of CAMP first academic year completers who continued in Postsecondary Education Programs




GPRA 2.1 (percent achieving placement)

Year 1

65

60

92%

Year 2

70

50

71%



In this example, for grant Year 1, data collected in the first quarter of grant Year 2 indicates that, of the 65 CAMP first academic year completers, 60 continued in postsecondary educations programs. The numerator is 60, the number of CAMP first academic year completers who continued in postsecondary education programs. The denominator is 65, the number of CAMP first academic year completers, for a placement of 60/65, or 92 percent. For grant Year 2, in which there were 70 CAMP first academic year completers, the numerator equals 50, for a success rate of 50/70, or 71 percent.


The program office also will calculate an efficiency measure for each project. Grantees do not calculate or report on these measures. Rather, data that grantees report will be used to calculate the measures, which are provided below.



Efficiency Measure: Project success efficiency ratio is calculated as the total budget awarded for that reporting period divided by the number of CAMP first academic year completers (as reported on the APR) that continue in post-secondary education (the MS Excel Form is formulated to perform this calculation).

General Instructions for CAMP Performance Reporting


Each CAMP grantee must complete and submit an Annual Performance Report (APR) for project Year 1 through Year 4. The Annual Performance Report for the project Year 5 is considered the Final Performance Report” since it contains information on the Year 5 as well as limited information on the entire project (Years 1 through 5). Grantee will complete additional sections (parts of Block D and parts of Cover Sheet including check box) for the Final Performance Report that reflects all project years. The reporting period for an APR is the budget period stated in section 6 of your Grant Award Notification (GAN).


These instructions guide grantees in filling out the Annual Performance Report and Final Performance Report. Where applicable, separate instructions are provided depending on whether a grantee is submitting an APR or a Final Performance Report. Grantees should follow these instructions carefully.


Grantees will submit:

1) the Cover Sheet, 2) the CAMP Performance Report Data Form, 3) the CAMP Performance Report Text Form and 4) the CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation Form as four separate files in a single (one) email to OME ([email protected]).


These instructions provide guidance on completing all of the above forms. If you have questions about how to complete one or more of these forms, please contact your assigned program officer.


Organization and Data Utilization


This CAMP performance report is divided into a Cover Sheet and the following seven sections:


Section A CAMP Project Statistics and Reporting for GPRA (MS Excel File)

Section B CAMP Project Student Participant Information (MS Excel File)

Section C CAMP Project Services Information (MS Excel File)

Section D CAMP Project Goals and Objectives (MS Word File)

Section E CAMP Project Budget Information (E1: MS Word File; E2: MS Excel File)

Section F Additional Information (MS Word File)

CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation Form (MS Excel File)


The Cover Sheet and the CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation Form must be converted to the Portable Document Format (.PDF ) before submission.








Data Utilization

Together, these sections will be used to answer the following evaluation questions decided upon by the program office:


1. To what extent have program goals been accomplished? (Section A; GPRA reporting)

2. What service models had the most positive outcomes? (Sections B and C)

3. What service models had the best efficiency ratios? (Sections C and E)

4. What percentage of project goals was achieved (i.e., met or exceeded)? (Section D)


Findings from aggregated grantee reports, as they pertain to the above stated evaluation questions, will be published for public record and for program and grantee use in better understanding effective service models and strategies.

Instructions for Section A CAMP Project Statistics and Reporting for GPRA

(Completed in MS Excel File)


Section A collects data on the number of students served and the number of students achieving program and project objectives. Items from Section A are used to calculate GPRA and efficiency measures.


Item A1


Item A1 requests information on the number of students served during the reporting period. Item A1a requests data on the number of students that the project was funded to serve. Item A1b requests data on the number of students actually served in first academic year college instruction, which is further disaggregated in items A1b1 and A1b2 into the number of students served in first academic year college instruction who were new participants and returning participants, respectively.


Definitions


Reporting Period: The 12-month period of time that is equal to the budget period found in Block 6 of the GAN.


Number funded to be served: The number of participants officially funded by the CAMP grant to be enrolled in CAMP instruction in your CAMP project during this reporting period.


Number served in CAMP instruction: The number of CAMP students who completed intake and were enrolled and attending college courses past the date when students can no longer add/drop courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a student’s official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated).


New participants: CAMP students who were new to the project (i.e. not enrolled in CAMP services in the immediately previous budget period), completed intake, and were enrolled and attending college courses past the date when students can no longer add/drop courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a students official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated). This is a subset of the number served.


Note:

1. Students who participated in CAMP services during budget periods other than the immediately previous budget period are considered “New Participants.”

2. The count would also include any students who participated in CAMP services in the immediately previous budget period, but were not counted as persisters at the end of that budget period because they did not enroll in the CAMP services during the current reporting period until after the APR was submitted.


Returning participants: CAMP first academic year college students who met the following criteria:

o completed intake in the budget period immediately previous to the one being reported,

o did not complete the first academic year of college in the budget period immediately previous to the one being reported, and

o were enrolled and attending CAMP first academic year college instruction past the date when students can no longer add/drop courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a student’s official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated), within the current reporting period. (This is a subset of the number served.)


Note:

1. This count should equal the number of persisters (including persisters from the fifth year of the grant) from the budget period immediately previous to the one being reported. In other words, the previous reporting periods persisters are the current years returning students.

2. Students from the immediately previous budget period who returned to the CAMP project during the current reporting period after the due date for the APR must be reported as “New Participants” in the current reporting period.

3. Similarly, students who return to CAMP in the current reporting period from any budget period other than the immediately previous budget period are to be reported as “New Participantsin the current reporting period.


Data quality check (the MS Excel Form is formulated to perform the calculation)


The number of students reported in items A1b1 and A1b2 should sum exactly to the number of students reported in item A1b (no. served).


The number of returning students (item A1b2) should equal the number of persisters reported in Item A2c in the previous years APR.



Note: Item A1b does not address the total number of participants recruited to be served. Each grantee may have served fewer students than it recruited. Grantees are required to report the number they actually served (not the number they recruited).

Reporting Block, Item A1 (For illustration purposes only; do not report data here)













Item A2


Item A2 collects data on the status of student participants at the end of the current reporting period. Item A2a requests data on the total number of students who completed their first academic year of college during the current reporting period (GPRA 1) while item A2b requests data on the total number of students who withdrew from the project during the reporting period. Item A2c requests data on the number of persisters who returned for services in the subsequent year. Note that students may be classified into one status group only (i.e., provide an unduplicated count of students).


All CAMP projects are also required to submit to OME, as a supplement to their APR, a list of CAMP students who completed their first academic year at the IHE during the reporting period. This documentation supports the information reported in item A2a (GPRA I). Instructions for completing this supplementary documentation using the CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation form begin on page 33.


Definitions


Reporting Period: The 12-month period of time that is equal to the budget period found in Block 6 of the GAN.


First academic year: “First academic year will be defined by the IHE in which the CAMP student is currently enrolled; however, grantees are to use the definition of an academic year in 34 CFR 668.3, which applies to the PELL program and Federal Student Aid, and which states, among other things, that a full-time student in an undergraduate educational program is expected to complete at least: 24 semester or trimester credit-hours or 36 quarter credit-hours for a program measured in credit-hours; or 900 clock-hours for a program measured in clock-hours. This minimum standard must be incorporated into the definition of an academic year.


CAMP first academic year completers: CAMP students who have successfully completed their first academic year in good standing (see definition of “in good standing below). The first academic year is defined by the IHE in which the CAMP student is currently enrolled, but must meet the minimum standard discussed in the definition of "first academic year,” above. In addition, a student is considered to have successfully completed credit hours or clock hours if the institution considers the student to have passed the coursework associated with those hours. At a minimum then, a student cannot be considered a first academic year completer until he or she has passed the number of hours established in the IHE’s definition of first academic year.


In determining if a student is a first-year completer, the IHE shall exclude college credits earned before the student’s graduation from high school. For example, if a student comes into a CAMP program at an IHE on a semester academic calendar already having accrued 24 college credits in high school, and the student has not earned any college credits in college, then that student may still be served by the CAMP program, and will be considered a first academic year completer when he or she attains at least 24 college credits in the CAMP project.


Additionally, in determining both a students enrollment level and whether a student is a first academic year completer, IHEs may, but are not required to, include remedial and English as a Second Language (ESL) coursework; however, an IHE's inclusion of these credits, hours, or units must be consistent with the standards in 34 CFR 668.20 (“Limitations on remedial coursework that is eligible for Title IV, HEA program assistance.”)


Withdrawals: The number of CAMP students who:

o completed intake and were enrolled and attending college courses past the IHE’s date after which students can no longer add courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a students official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated), but

o left the CAMP project without completing the first academic year of college, and

o did not re-enroll for instruction in the CAMP project by the APR due date of the subsequent budget period.

This count also should include students who earned some college credits, but did not complete the first academic year of college (a withdrawal indicates that students have left the project or have not re-enrolled in the subsequent budget period by APR due date for whatever reason).


Persisters: The number of CAMP first academic year college students who:

o completed intake and were enrolled and attending college courses past the date after which students can no longer add courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a student’s official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated), but

o did not complete their first academic year of college, however,

o re-enrolled for continuing instructional services in support of completing their first academic year of postsecondary education in the subsequent budget period prior to the APR submission due date.


Note:

1. When students re-enroll in a subsequent budget period, they must remain enrolled past the date after which they can no longer add/drop courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a students official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated), before they can be counted as persisters. Additionally, when CAMP students re-enroll in the subsequent budget period they must meet the same full-time requirement as new CAMP students. (See the CAMP GPRA 1 Documentation for the definition of “full-time.”)

2. Please also note that persisters can be counted in all years of the five-year grant cycle (i.e., Y1-Y5). Those students who are counted as persisters in the fifth year’s APR will be counted as returning students” in the first year APR of the next CAMP grant. Since the students are persisters from the previous grant’s Year five, you will not need to re-establish eligibility for those students (see question H3 in the HEP/CAMP Eligibility Guidance).


Target Number of CAMP First Academic Year Completers: The target for the total number of first academic year completers served over the entire project period, which was established by each project in its approved application.


In Good Standing: For the purposes of reporting CAMP students first year completion, in good standing is defined as being academically eligible to re-enroll at the IHE in the academic year immediately following the one in which the student is reported as being a first academic year completer.


Data quality check (The MS Excel Form is formulated to perform this calculation.)


The sum of items A2a-c should equal the count reported in item A1b (no. served). The MS Excel Form is formulated to comply with this rule and displays a feedback message titled “Your data input accuracy result.” “Pls Check” implies an error and “Good Job” implies correct calculation.


The number of persisters reported here would be equal to the returning participants in the subsequent budget periods performance report.

Reporting Block, Item A2 (For illustration purposes only; do not report data here)



















Item A3 (GPRA 2)


Item A3a collects data on the status of CAMP first academic year completers at the end of the reporting period (GPRA 2). The count reported in item A3a is a subset or equal to the total number of first academic year completers who received follow-up (reported in Item A4). This count is a subset or equal to the count reported in A2a (no. of CAMP first academic year completers). As a subset, the count reported in item A3a should be equal to or less than the count reported in Item A4 (no. of CAMP first academic year completers you were able to track for follow-up data), which should be equal to or less than the count reported in Item A2a (no. of CAMP first academic year completers). (The MS Excel Form is formulated to perform this calculation.)


Completion of Item A3a requires follow-up with first academic year completers; data regarding follow-up is described in Item A4.


Definitions


Reporting Period: The 12-month period of time that is equal to the budget period found in Block 6 of the GAN.


Continuing CAMP First Academic Year Completers: Of those students who completed their first academic year of college in this reporting period, the number who continued in postsecondary education programs. To be counted as continuing in postsecondary education, the student must re- enroll in an IHE in the academic year immediately following the one in which he or she is reported as being a first academic year completer, and must remain enrolled past the date when students can no longer add/drop courses, or a census date (whichever is the point when a students official enrollment status for the academic term is evaluated).


This measure should be taken any time after the first academic year of college is completed and before the performance report is due, and it should be based on actual enrollment and not on anticipated enrollment.


Target number of CAMP first academic year completers who continued in postsecondary education programs: The target established by the individual grantee for the total number of CAMP first academic year completers who continued in postsecondary education programs.

Definitions


Reporting Period: The 12-month period of time that is equal to the budget period found in Block 6 of the GAN.


CAMP first academic year completers you were able to track for follow-up data: Because CAMP program regulations require CAMP grantees to provide follow-up services for project participants after they have completed their first year of college (see 34 CFR 206.11(a)), the Department requires grantees to follow up with all CAMP first academic year completers in the current reporting period to determine if they continued in postsecondary education programs. Follow-up should occur in a timely fashion (i.e., within 90 days of the end of the reporting period); these data should be reported in the APR.

Instructions for Section D – CAMP Project Goals and Objectives

(Completed in MS Word file)


In your approved grant application, you established project objectives stating what you hope to achieve with your funded grant project. Generally, one or more performance measures also were established for each project objective that serve to demonstrate whether you have met or are making progress towards meeting each project objective.


Report on the results to date of your project evaluation as required under EDGAR, 34 CFR 75.590. According to the instructions below, for each project objective included in your approved grant application, provide quantitative and/or qualitative data for each associated performance. You will also explain how your data on your performance measures demonstrate whether you have met or are making progress towards meeting each project objective.


Note: Complete data must be submitted for any project-specific performance measures that were included in your approved grant application.


Section 1) Project Objective:


Enter each project objective for this reporting period that is included in your approved grant application. Only one project objective should be entered per table. Project objectives should be numbered sequentially, i.e. 1., 2., 3., etc. Data on GPRA objectives should only be entered in section A of this form and should not be reported in this section.


Performance Measure:


For each project objective, enter each associated performance measure. There may be multiple performance measures associated with each project objective. Enter only one performance measure per row. Each performance measure that is associated with a particular project objective should be labeled using an alpha indicator. Example: The first performance measure associated with project objective “1” should be labeled “1.a.,” the second performance measure for project objective “1should be labeled “1.b.,” etc. For each performance measure, use the row that corresponds to your project funding year (Y1, Y2, etc.).


Quantitative Data:


Target and Actual Performance Data

In the “Target column(s), grantees must provide the target that was established for each performance measure in the approved grant application. In the Actual Performance Data” column(s), grantees must provide actual performance data demonstrating progress towards meeting or exceeding this target. Only quantitative (numeric) data should be entered in the Target and Actual Performance Data boxes.


The Target and Actual Performance Data boxes are each divided into three columns: Raw Number; Ratio; and Percentage (%).


For performance measures that are stated in terms of a single number (e.g., the number of workshops that will be conducted or the number of students that will be served), the target and actual performance data should be reported as a single number under the Raw Number column (e.g., 10 workshops or 80 students). Please leave the Ratio and Percentage (%) columns blank. For performance measures that are stated in terms of a percentage (e.g., percentage of students that attain proficiency), complete both the Ratio column and the Percentage (%) column. Please leave the Raw Number column blank.


In the Ratio column (e.g., 80/100), the numerator represents the numerical target (e.g., the number of students that are expected to attain proficiency) or actual performance data (e.g., the number of students who attained proficiency), and the denominator represents the number of students funded to be served, or actually served (whichever is higher) under each objective. Please enter the corresponding percentage (e.g., 80%) in the Percentage (%) column. Note: the denominator may vary across objectives, depending upon the number of students each objective is designed to reach.


If the collection of quantitative data is not appropriate for a particular performance measure, please leave the Target and Actual Performance Data boxes blank and provide an explanation and any relevant qualitative data for the performance measure in the section entitled, Explanation of Progress (Section 2).


Note: If you are using weighted data, please indicate how the data are weighted in the section entitled, Explanation of Progress (Section 2).


Special instructions for grants in their first reporting period:


If baseline data for a performance measure were not included in your approved application and targets were not set for the first reporting period, then enter either the number 999 under the Raw Number column or the ratio 999/999 under the Ratio column of the Target box, depending on how your data will be reported in the future. The 999 or 999/999 indicates that baseline data are being collected on the measure during the first reporting period and targets have not yet been set. Report baseline data collected during the first reporting period under either the Raw Number column or the Ratio and Percentage (%) columns of the Actual Performance Data box, as appropriate. After baseline data have been collected during the first reporting period, grantees are expected to set targets for the second and any subsequent reporting periods and report actual performance data in their annual performance reports.


Section D also requests that data from multiple project years be entered, according to the project year reported. Data entry should follow the process described above for sections A and B in that data for each project year are entered separately, in the appropriate reporting year.






Example:


In Year 1of a project funded to serve 100 students per year with a target of awarding financial aid to 100 percent of students; only 80% of the student receive financial aid, your data entry would look like this:
