CEDS Standard Update

CEDS Stakeholder Group Update Why CEDS? Schedule CEDS Comments Received Focus of Version 2 Review of Tools

What is the Standard? A national collaborative effort to develop voluntary, common data standards for a key set of education data elements Voluntary Common Vocabulary A vocabulary including standard definitions, code sets & technical specifications.

Why do we need CEDS? 1. Educators and policymakers need accurate, timely, and consistent information about students and schools in order to plan effective learning experiences, improve schools, and reduce costs. 2. Our student population is highly mobile – across districts and states, and between early learning, K12, postsecondary & the workforce. Thus, the need to share high quality data requires that we develop a common vocabulary for a core subset of data elements that exist in multiple data systems. Accurate, timely, and consistent information to inform decisionmaking Share & compare high quality data within & across P-20W sectors
