Agenda
Review the new guidance for states as they write their Ed-Fi aligned data specifications ß this was the outcome of the action from our last meeting – see Guidelines and Expectations for States Using Ed-Fi Standards
Awareness of proposed changes to Ed-Fi Certification – see Best Practices under Ed-Fi Certification
Ed-Fi research support: how SIS systems are doing multi-year data sends
...
Generally SIS systems seem to set up a configuration for each year
Keeps them open for each past year
Results in a lot of training for staff to understand the rules and processes around correction of past years
Some discussion of course transcript came up - is a lot of data
Idea: asking states to add a year dimension to the extensions - would that help manage the code?
Follow-up: can you describe the basics of SIS rollover processes? Processes seem similar: give LEAs the option to copy forward configuration and similar base date from the prior year in a structured process
