Keep this document in your records. You may also need to provide your CTE Administrator with a copy of this form for their records. 1. Administrator Info & Signature 2. CTE Teacher Info & Signature 3. Business & Industry Chairperson 26 NAVIGATOR -- ON LINE CIP SELF REVIEW Q & A’S 1. I’ve gone to navigator-mccte-fsu.org, but I’m not able to get into Navigator. What’s the problem? Contact your CTE Administrator to be sure that he/she has activated you for the current school year. If your administrator has activated you contact “Kavin” at Ferris. His number is 231.796.2822. (page 5) 2. Is it necessary for me to fill in all my personal information in my profile in Navigator? It is recommended that you DO NOT put in your personal information (home phone number, social security, home address, etc). However, you are to provide your work information, teaching credentials, etc. You will also be asked to upload a copy of your teaching credentials including your vocational certification and any licensure you may hold for your specific program area. It is advisable that you white out your social security number on any document where it may appear before uploading into Navigator. (page 5) 3. How do I know if my teaching certification is correct? To be sure that your certification is correct (it has been known that errors do occur when teachers receive their teaching certificates from Lansing.) Before uploading your teaching and vocational certifications, go to ( michigan.gov/mde ) • Click on MDE – Michigan Department of Education. • Locate the box in the center column UNDER “HOT TOPICS”, cursor down to EDUCATOR CERTIFICATION VERIFICATION and input your name as directed. • Under the heading Certificate/Permit/ AVA Number click on the certificate number to verify your teaching and vocational certificates. If they do not match, contact your CTE administrator. 4. My program is taught by 3 other teachers. We share the same PSN number. Do all 3 of us complete the On-Line CIP Self-Review? OCTE requires that a single teacher upload and complete the CIP Self-Review in one PSN. However, all teachers that are teaching within a single CIP Code are required to upload their own CO1 – Teaching Certificate and personal information. The other teachers are to provide the identified teacher with documentation (safety tests, grades, etc.) to be uploaded. Contact your CTE Administrator w/ questions. 5. When I was working in my On-Line CIP Self Review, I noticed some correspondence in the Communication Log at the bottom of each page in the CIP. Can I respond to my CTE Administrator using the Communication Log? Throughout the entire process of completing the On-Line CIP Self Review, your CTE administrator will be able to review what you uploaded. In the past, teachers submitted their “TRAC Binders” to the CTE administrator for review and approval. With the On-Line CIP, your CTE administrator is able to review your documentation and correspond by making suggestions, expressing concerns, etc. via the Communication Log. NOTE that there is a box in the lower right corner of this log to indicate whom the correspondence is to be sent to. (page 6) 6. In C01 - do I need to fill in all of my certification information again? No, documentation needed for C01 will be captured from the Profile page in Navigator. (page 8) 7. How can I save my documentation and information that I’ve inputted into Navigator’s CIP Self Review? It is important that you SAVE your work each time you upload documentation or after you have entered information into the On-Line CIP Self Review. The SAVE BAR can be found to the far right of the page you are working on, OR, you can cursor to the very end of the CIP Self-Review and SAVE your work as well. (page 6) 27 8. Is it necessary to upload all of my professional development (C02) from the last 5 years? OCTE is interested in the professional development that you may have attended that is applicable to your specific program area. The PD should have been completed within the last 5 years. PD could include OCTE workshops, post-secondary coursework specific to your program content area, professional organization workshops (i.e. NATEF, DECA, MHOEA) etc. If you have questions, contact your CTE administrator or your CEPD administrator. (page 9) 9. I have a parapro. Does their professional development (C04) need to be in their occupational area that they are working in? It is strongly recommended by OCTE that a parapro’s PD be in their occupational area, but academic integration workshops, safety training (CPR, etc.) documentation can be uploaded. Be sure to have the date, time and location of training noted on the documentation. (page 10) 10. How do I identify a successful completer requested in C05? Your district should have a CTE definition for Concentrators / Completers. See your CTE administrator for the definition. Be sure to include a current school year SEGMENT SHEET that you have signed. It should indicate which segments are taught by trimester/semester and in year 1 or 2 of your program. (page 11) 11. I attended the MISD Regional Advisory meeting (C06) in the fall last year, and ran out of time to hold my nd 2 advisory meeting. What should I do? It is important that you upload the membership roster and the required information from the Regional Advisory Meeting, along with the minutes and sign in sheet. nd Because you did not hold a 2 advisory meeting, you will note in the EVIDENCE MISSING REPORT that you are nd missing the 2 advisory meeting documentation. The MISSING INFORMATION REPORT will also indicate that you have not completed all of the necessary documentation in C06. When you go to complete your CIP Self Review – a Plan of Improvement will be generated that you will need to attend to during the upcoming school year. If you fail to complete the Plan of Improvement, your program may lose state approval. (page 12 & 26) 12. I’ve never done anything with the Expenditure Report (C07). Help! This report basically shows the monies that were spent for your specific program during the specific school year for program improvements. It could include new software, textbooks, tools, your end of program assessment expenses, advisory committee expenses, etc. It is not necessary to include the wages you or your parapro earned. Your building bookkeeper or whoever is in charge of your program expenditures will be able to assist you with this part of the reporting. If you have questions, see your CTE administrator. (page 13) 13. Are pictures good enough to show my classroom / lab? Though pictures are important to include, no, this is not adequate. You must include a room drawing with dimensions and include total square footage. (page 14) 14. I don’t need to teach classroom safety to my students (C09), do I have to complete this section? Yes. Go back to your program standards to locate the safety standards for your program. Every program has safety standards that need to be taught. It is important to have a safety training check list with the dates that each student passed their safety-training in the areas for your CTE program. Identify the specific safety training and have students initial their name on the list next to their scores. (page 15) 28 15. I’m teaching the CTE standards for my program. I’ve completed the GAP Analysis on-line version and have uploaded my syllabus. Do I need to be addressing leadership (C10) in my program as well? Leadership is an important component in CTE programs. All approved programs are to show evidence of a type of leadership, whether it is a student organization (Skills USA, HOSA, DECA, etc.) for your program or community service. Leadership also includes holding meetings, listing of student membership, electing officers and keeping minutes of the meetings. Include results of the competition or community service. If you have questions, be sure to check with your CTE administrator. (page 16) 16. Do I need to upload evidence of the academic credit that students can receive if they take my CTE program? Providing evidence is not needed. All that OCTE is asking on the C11 section of the CIP is that you indicate if your program offers academic credit; if so, how much credit and in what area can the student fulfill academic credit (math, ELA, Social Studies, VPAA and / or On-Line Learning.) (page 16) 17. I don’t have an inventory of my CTE program equipment. What do I do? First make a listing of all equipment for your program. Then ask the building bookkeeper if he/she is able to check their records for possible dates of purchase. If not, start keeping records of equipment and dates. Update them when you purchase new equipment. • Technology Inventory --- Elmo’s, document projectors, computers, overhead projectors, etc. – this should also be included with the equipment listing along w/ dates of purchase. • Textbooks & Software - include photocopies of the textbook cover and copyright page, as well as software and other resources with copyright dates. Include this list in the equipment inventory. (page 18) 18. I don’t have any handicapped / special needs students in my program, what do I need to do about C13 Eliminating Barriers? You may not have a handicapped / special needs student(s) at this time, but that could change in the near future. Eliminating Barriers is a broad area. It includes, any pre-requisites to get into your program, accessibility in your classroom / lab, enrollment requirements, district non-discrimination policies, and an annual notice of CTE opportunities available in your district. Refer to the documentation needed on page 16 of the On-Line CIP SELF REVIEW GUIDELINE booklet that has been provided to you. (page 19) 19. My district does not provide Co-Op opportunities for students? How can I fulfill the Work Based Learning (C14) requirement? There are a number of ways to provide your students with a work-based learning experience. All students in your program MUST have at least “1” work based learning experience. Check the listing of possible opportunities on the checklist in the second section of C14 or on page 16 of the ON-LINE CIP SELF REVIEW GUIDELINE booklet. If you have questions after doing this, contact your CTE administrator. (page 20) 20. Where do I get the information to upload for C15 – Data Accuracy Verification? First, you can provide documentation about your pre & post test results for your CTE program. Records of student enrollment, grades, the master schedule, school calendar and Core Performance Inventory can be sought out through your CTEIS data secretary. If you do not know who the CTEIS secretary is, be sure to ask your CTE administrator. (page 21) 29 21. I have the articulation agreement from my local community college. It includes the date the articulation expires and is signed by the community college and school district representatives. What is a program of study? I don’t have one. (C16) The Program of Study is a comprehensive, structured chart showing all high school academics and CTE classes for a student to complete while in high school in preparation for post-secondary education and success in their chosen career. It is an agreement between a state approved CTE programs to state approved post secondary program. It is important that the program of study at the post secondary level indicate a minimum of 2 years of coursework to be completed. (page 22) 22. What are Unique Program Features?
