Outcome Metrics
The outcome metrics quantify the end-product of the educational process, informing policymakers and the public on how students, institutions, and the state are performing on the goal of increased postsecondary attainment.

Progress Metrics
Progress metrics measure student movement from semester-to-semester and year-to-year toward the completion of an academic program. Such measures help policymakers identify specific challenges and opportunities for improvement in higher education. The measures also enable institutions to target intervention and support services to increase the likelihood of completion.

Context Metrics to Consider
NGA proposes additional context measures to help states analyze and apply the outcome and progress metrics, providing governors and other state leaders with more information on which to base policy decisions.
1. Formation of a state-wide data metrics team to work with the DE and ISU in refining the definitions, methodologies, and reporting of outcomes.
2. Regular monitoring of performance on the metrics.3. Development of strategies to improve performance
on the metrics.4. Sharing of initiatives that result in improved
performance on the metrics.5. Develop a communications plan to disseminate
positive outcomes.
