Current Narrative:
At the beginning, first two years (PY-2020 and PY-2021), of the PY 2020-2023 State Plan period, the following indicators were still designated as being in a baseline status.
- Employment (Second Quarter after Exit);
- Employment (Fourth Quarter after Exit);
- Median Earnings (Second Quarter after Exit); and
- Credential Attainment Rate
The Measurable Skills Gain indicator did have two years of data available for review. As such VR agencies were required to only report an expected level of performance for measurable skill gains (MSG). RSB negotiated 20% as its level of performance for this measure. RSB exceeded its negotiated level of performance with 73.3% for PY 2020.
Meanwhile the Effectiveness in Serving Employers Indicator is currently in a piloted status. Data is still being collected on this indicator.
RSB collaborated with its core partners to determine a performance indicator for Effectiveness in Serving Employers. Missouri chose Repeat Business Customers and Employer Penetration Rate as its measure of performance. The core partners continue data collection for this indicator.
