Scale Scores, NRS Educational Functioning Levels (EFLs), and Grade Levels

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) requires states to report performance outcomes to monitor program performance. For states to meet these requirements, local programs use standardized assessments to collect and report data on student and client learning gains.

The process ensures accurate and consistent monitoring of learner progress results among programs and agencies and provides baseline data needed to document improvements in literacy skills. CASAS standardized assessments meet these requirements and correlate with the Educational Functioning Level (EFL) definitions outlined by the National Reporting System (NRS).
