NPSO Community of Practice Call March 10 Hi all: This is a reminder that our NPSO Community of Practice Teleconference will be next week on Thursday March 10.
Topic: New NPSO Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems (SLDS) products- Indicator 14 SLDS Data Dictionary and SLDS FAQ NPSO staff will be providing information related to Indicator 14 and Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems. Two new documents created by the NPSO and recently approved by OSEP will be presented and discussed. The products are a new FAQ about Indicator 14 and SLDS and a new Indicator 14 Data Dictionary NPSO. The Indicator 14 Data Dictionary is a new NPSO product that identifies and defines the student level data elements that are needed if states want to use their SLDS (extant data) to report indicator 14. During the call we will be surveying states to see what is currently being done with Indicator 14 data in their state. Specifically if the collected data is being linked back to the students other data within the k-12 data system (SLDS) within your state. Please think about this question and be prepared to share what is happening in your state on the call. One of our goals in the coming years is to help states to link their post-school outcomes data back to their states data system.
