Item 2: Certification. The pros/cons from the Technical Congress were discussed (see materials linked to 2018 Technical Congress). On the core risk of dis-aggregating the SIS certification, the possibility of restricting the dis-aggregated certifications (e.g. just a SPED certification) to vendors who can demonstrate that they are actively doing business in such a fashion was brought up. I.e. a SIS system can't request a SPED certification unless the vendor can demonstrate that it is being actively used in the real work as just a SPED system.
Post meeting/via email: another suggestion was to have an Ed-Fi "Basic" certification that supports basic roster/student info compliance and basic data interchange. This could assist with rostering and aid in efficiency there.
