The National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Career/Technical Education (CTE) Statistics system derives data about career/technical education primarily from existing NCES surveys.

CTES

Some of the most informative data in the CTE Statistics system are from high school transcript data.This method of obtaining data provides a more accurate and complete picture of participation in career/technical education than can be obtained by other means. The CTE Statistics system also uses data from NCES' surveys of postsecondary students and institutions, surveys of secondary schools and faculty, and longitudinal surveys that track secondary and postsecondary students through schooling and into the labor market. The tables provided on this website (see menu list on left) provide NCES' most general statistical information about CTE. BTLS. NHES. ECLS. The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study (ECLS) program includes three longitudinal studies that examine child development, school readiness, and early school experiences.

ECLS

The birth cohort of the ECLS-B is a sample of children born in 2001 and followed from birth through kindergarten entry. The kindergarten class of 1998-99 cohort is a sample of children followed from kindergarten through the eighth grade. The kindergarten class of 2010-11 cohort is following a sample of children from kindergarten through the fifth grade. The ECLS program provides national data on children's status at birth and at various points thereafter; children's transitions to nonparental care, early education programs, and school; and children's experiences and growth through the eighth grade.

The ECLS program also provides data to analyze the relationships among a wide range of family, school, community, and individual variables with children's development, early learning, and performance in school. B&B. The Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B) examines students’ education and work experiences after they complete a bachelor’s degree, with a special emphasis on the experiences of new elementary and secondary teachers.

The 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy is a nationally representative assessment of English literacy among American adults age 16 and older.

NAAL

Sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), NAAL is the nation's most comprehensive measure of adult literacy since the 1992 National Adult Literacy Survey (NALS). In 2003, over 19,000 adults participated in the national and state-level assessments, representing the entire population of U.S. adults who are age 16 and older, most in their homes and some in prisons from the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Approximately 1,200 inmates of federal and state prisons were assessed in order to provide separate estimates of literacy for the incarcerated population. By comparing results from 1992 and 2003, NAAL provides the first indicator in a decade of the nation's progress in adult literacy.
