NCPI has been working for several months on enhancements to our website in an effort to make it more user friendly and informative. Our efforts have resulted in the following improvements:

• Updated State-by-State Map – The state-by-state map has been updated to reflect more recent pay for performance programs, including the 2010 Teacher Incentive Fund grantees and Race to the Top awardees. In addition to these program updates, various state and local initiatives have been updated, and we have added a document – which can be downloaded – providing information on programs operating at the national and individual state level. Overall, the interactive, state-by-state map allows users to learn the specifics about the national, state-level, and local incentive pay initiatives operating in each state. To view the state-by-state map, please click here. If you know of a program not currently included in the map, please email us at ncpi@vanderbilt.edu.
• Revised Publications – NCPI is in the process of redesigning all its publications, including technical reports, working papers, and conference papers. While the content of the publications remains unchanged, the publications have been reformatted at a smaller file size, resulting in more efficient downloads
• Conference Information – Information from the center’s 2010 conference, Educating and Rewarding Educator Effectiveness, is now available on our website. Information includes the conference program and select presentations. Please check back in the coming weeks to download audio and video files from all panels and breakout sessions.
