Quick Facts
If you can't find the answer you are looking for below, please see the FAQ document on the Help page of the VE 135 data collection web site.

Who must report the VE-135 and VE-130 data?
Any school with active or contracted CTE programs. Even if you do not report FTE for CVA reimbursement to CCCS, you must still report your VE-135 and VE-130 data every year.

What is VE-135 and VE-130 data?
The VE-135 is a database which contains demographic and programmatic information for secondary and post-secondary level students. It is primarily used to report enrollment and follow-up (placement) information for CTE students, but information for post-secondary students having academic and undeclared majors is also collected.

VE-130 active teacher data reports what the CTE education teachers are ACTUALLY teaching during the school year. This is not the same database that is used to track teacher credentialing.

The CTE Credentialing web site certifies CTE teachers to teach in specific subject areas. Note that you must have a credentialed teacher instructing each of your active vocatonal programs.

Why does the VE-135 data have to be reported?
To comply with state CVA and federal Perkins regulations for CTE funding, CCCS is required by law to collect Colorado CTE enrollment and follow-up student data each year.

The data is used in five main areas -
  • To calculate federal Perkins allocations,
  • It is used in the program approval and renewal process,
  • To determine civil rights compliance audits,
  • To generate the Colorado Vocational Act Annual Report,
  • To calculate the CAR federal performance report (Perkins Sub-indicators) .
How do I report the VE-135 and VE-130 data?
All VE-135 enrollment and placement (follow-up) reporting may be done at the VE 135 web site with the exception of post-secondary enrollment in programs offered at community colleges.

You also have the option of submitting the VE-135 enrollment and follow-up (placement) in a text file directly to our office. For instructions on how to do this, go to the Help page on the VE 135 web site.

When should the data be reported?
The VE-135 follow-up (placement) data deadline is March 1 each year.

The VE-135 enrollment data deadline is June 30 each year.

The VE-130 active teacher data should be updated continuously.
