National Post School Outcome Data Community of Practice ------------------------------------------------------
.. Thank you, Jane! By the way, what did you think of using Facebook for collecting post high school data? This is something I had discussed with one of my NORC colleagues. It poses opportunity for gathering helpful quantitative and qualitative data. And of course, if this is an idea new to the NPSO, we would certainly hope that our sharing it with you would mean NPSO including us in any related project!
