Abstract	The "Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act of 19981" (commonly referred to as "Perkins," "Perkins III," or "the Act" and referred to hereafter as "Perkins III") requires, in Sec. 113(c)(3)(C), that the secretary provide the appropriate committees of Congress copies of annual reports received by the U.S. Department of Education from each eligible agency that receives funds under "Perkins III." Sec. 113(c)(3)(A) further requires the secretary to make the information contained in such reports available to the general public. To meet this obligation, the Department is providing the data in both hard copy and digital (on the Internet) formats. This report contains information on states' progress in achieving their adjusted performance levels--negotiated with and approved by the Department--on the core indicators of performance listed in Sec. 113(b)(2)(A) of "Perkins III": (1) Student attainment of challenging state-established academic, vocational and technical skill proficiencies, hereafter referred to as academic and skill attainment; (2) Student attainment of a secondary school diploma or its recognized equivalent, a proficiency credential in conjunction with a secondary school diploma, or a postsecondary degree or credential, hereafter referred to as completion; (3) Placement in, retention in, and completion of, postsecondary education or advanced training, placement in military service, or placement or retention in employment, hereafter referred to as placement and retention; and (4) Student participation in and completion of career and technical education programs that lead to nontraditional training and employment, hereafter referred to as nontraditional programs. This is the Department's eighth annual report to Congress. This report transmits data that states submitted to the Department for program year (PY) 2006-07. This report to Congress contains four sections. The first section enumerates the accountability requirements in "Perkins III" and describes efforts by the Department to help states develop their performance accountability systems and their performance levels for career and technical education. The second section summarizes states' progress in meeting their PY 2006-07 performance levels. The third section discusses issues pertaining to the quality and reliability of states' "Perkins III" performance data. The final section offers conclusions. Individual state data profiles are provided in the appendices. [For "Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act of 1998.
