Imagine…

A high school student in one state enrolls in a university in another state that uses a different education data standard.

  • The two schools use different standards.
  • The university registrar cannot transfer the

student’s transcript information with accuracy.

The Challenge

Imagine…

A child is enrolled in both Early Intervention and Early Head Start, but the data standard is different for each program and provider agency.

slide-5
SLIDE 5

The Challenge

The regions or states looking to identify the level of access to services are not able

to articulate an unduplicated count

across programs of high-need children being served in each program.

Imagine…

A community college system wants to compare the percent of community college students taking distance learning courses in their state to the percent of community college students taking distance learning courses in surrounding states.

The Challenge

Without a common education data standard for distance learning courses, the resulting analysis would likely

be flawed since each state could be

defining "taking,” “distance learning course,” and "community college students” differently.

Lack of clear and consistent data standards can result in serious data complications.

If data stakeholders had been speaking a common vocabulary, they could communicate the data with confidence in its accuracy and usefulness.

CEDS Solution

This is why a common vocabulary—such as

Common Education Data Standards—

is essential.

A common vocabulary allows stakeholders to avoid the confusion inherent in such situations.

What is CEDS?

A vocabulary including standard definitions,

  • ption sets, & technical specifications to

streamline sharing and comparing A national collaborative effort to develop

voluntary, common data standards for a key

set of education data elements

Voluntary Common Vocabulary

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Reasons for a Common Vocabulary

1.Accurate, timely, and consistent data to inform decisionmaking 2.Share & compare high quality data within & across P-20 sectors 3.Decrease the staff burden associated with deciphering data

Why CEDS?

Using consistent and comparable data throughout all education levels and sectors … … stakeholders, administrators, legislators, and researchers can

more efficiently work together

toward ensuring student success.

The Use of CEDS

Use of CEDS allow different parties

  • Administrators
  • Teachers
  • District- and state-level data stewards

to communicate about data that they all understand.

Using CEDS

INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION

  • Adopting the standards in the

development of metrics to respond to various policy initiatives aimed at improving postsecondary graduation rates.

  • Example: Complete College America

Using CEDS

  • Using CEDS to develop an early learning

data system or to add early learning to the existing SLDS in the SEA.

EARLY LEARNING AGENCIES

Using CEDS

  • Work to meet the needs of expanding

and more complicated data systems in districts and states.

  • Many choose to incorporate the

standards into their new products.
