  • The Ed-Fi Student Information Systems API v3 certification verifies that a Student Information System (the source system, or "provider") can manage a core set of data on a target system (the "consumer")
  • The certification requirements originate out of needs from actual field implementation work in the Ed-Fi Community
  • Synchronization MUST occur as changes are made during normal product usage

The Ed-Fi Community worked together to determine a core set of data necessary to power various LEA analytics use cases. This collaboration resulted in a common ask to SIS providers ("become Ed-Fi certified"). This is powerful because it provides clarity around what data receiving LEA wants from a SIS provider and removes the need for a SIS provider to maintain custom extracts. The Ed-Fi SIS Certification encompasses ~40 Ed-Fi API endpoints the SIS provider must manage data on. Within each endpoint, each element is marked as either required, conditional, or optional.
