The Reference and Reporting Guide is intended to assist institutions of higher education and states in meeting new reporting requirements for teacher preparation, certification, and licensing mandated by Title II of the Higher Education Act. The Guide is intended for reference purposes only.

The National Center for Education Statistics prepared the Guide in consultation with the Office of Postsecondary Education and other offices in the Department of Education. The Office of Postsecondary Education is responsible for assisting institutions and states in fulfilling the requirements and for issuing the annual report to Congress.
