Indicator 14 Interviewer Training 2024-2025

Available May 2025

Indicator 14 is a measurement of the postschool outcomes of a student with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) in the areas of: higher education, competitive employment, other postsecondary education or training, other employment, and not meeting indicator 14 participation criteria. Data for this indicator is collected through the Indicator 14 survey one year after exiting high school.

Each participating district falls into either a required or elective survey year and districts have the option to participate in the survey by either:

Conducting their own district interviews, or
Contracting with St. Norbert College to conduct interviews on their behalf.

If a district chooses to conduct its own surveys, the designated Indicator 14 Interviewer must complete one of the two Self-Paced Macro Courses designed for interviewer training. To begin, click on the course title below that aligns with the level of professional development required to conduct Indicator 14 surveys for your district.
