Indian and Native American Program

Results for Individual Grantees

ETA's INA program also establishes "minimum standards" and "performance goals" for the Entered Employment Rate (EER) and Positive Termination Rate (PTR) for each INA grantee. The links below provide each grantee's actual outcome, minimum standard and performance goal for PY 2002. The last column provides a grade for each grantee.

A = grantee has met the performance goal.
B = grantee has met the minimum standard.
C = grantee failed to meet both the performance goal and the minimum standard.

Entered Employment Rate (EER) Positive Termination Rate (PTR)

Optional Measures for Individual Grantees

Grantees must select three measures from the 13 optional "menu" of measures (see table below). The INA program's GPRA measures are included in the menu (measure 5 and measure 10) and performance is calculated for these two measures regardless if the grantee selects them as part of their three measures. While the EER and PTR are used for the program overall, the three measures that are actually selected by the grantee will be used as other indicators in determining grantee performance. Sanctions may be imposed on the grantee if it does not meet two of the three measures selected from the menu.

Individual (and Aggregate) Performance on the 13 Optional Measures

The INA Menu Performance.pdf file provides performance data on the menu of measures. This file contains 23 separate tables which are self explanatory. However, additional information on some of the more important tables is provided below.

  • Table 2 - provides aggregate data on the number of grantees that did not meet two out of the three measures selected. In PY 2002, there were 12 grantees that did not meet two out the three measures selected. These grantees are considered as having "failed" their performance measures.
  • Table 3 - lists the individual grantees that did not meet two out of the three measures selected.
  • Table 4 - indicates whether or not the grantee met its 1st, 2nd and 3rd measure. Table 6 can be used to cross reference what the 1st, 2nd and 3rd measures are.
  • Table 7 - indicates how many grantees chose each measure.

Grantee Efficiency (Average Cost Per Participant)

The INA Efficiency Measure.pdf file provides the number of participants served, amount of funding awarded and the average cost per participant for program year 2002 for each Native American grantee. The average cost per participant is calculated by dividing the number of participants served by the grantee's annual funding award. The average cost per participant calculation is referred to as the "Efficiency" measure under the common performance measures.
