  2. CEDARS Training Agenda • Welcome and Introductions • Training Overview • Evolution from CSRS to CEDARS (Fri) • Submission and Editing Process (Tues) • Course Catalog, Student Schedules, Grade History - including phase-in of State Course Codes (Wed) • Staff Information, including Certification Numbers (Thurs) • Expanded Program data and New Ethnicity and Race codes (Fri) May 2009

  3. CEDARS Overview • CEDARS Submission deadline • CEDARS Error Processing • Reports Overview May 2009

  4. Data Collection Deadlines • CEDARS submissions are required at least monthly • More frequent submissions are encouraged • OSPI will have your most recent data • OSPI will have corrected data • Requesting ‘unlocks’ from Customer Support is ‘NO LONGER REQUIRED’ • OSPI will process CEDARS submissions nightly May 2009

  5. Data File Submissions • Thirteen (13) files are submitted • The 13 files come to OSPI in a Zipped (compressed) file using a SFTP (secure file transfer protocol) process • Vendors may support the data extract and submission process • The SFTP process ensures that the data is sent securely • Do not send student data via email (not secure) • Contact OSPI Customer Support if you need help sending your data to OSPI at CustomerSupport@k12.wa.us May 2009

  6. Data File Submission Format • All files submitted to OSPI must be in text tab delimited format • File naming and file layout should be exactly as specified in the Data Manual • CEDARS runs overnight • Confirmation and errors available next morning May 2009

  8. File Naming Convention • Naming convention for each file: • COUNTY-DISTRICT CODE_SCHOOLCODE_FileName_YYYYMMDD.TXT • Naming convention for the Zip File: • 12345_0000_CEDARS_20070303.zip May 2009

  9. CEDARS Error Reconciliation • Resources • Customer Support • Student Information System Vendors May 2009

  10. CEDARS Error Reconciliation • CEDARS Data Submission consists of 13 data files • The 13 files are run through two error reconciliation processes that produce: • Process errors • Individual File errors May 2009

  11. Process Errors • Process errors occur when: • Data formats are incorrect • Required data elements are missing data or have invalid values • The first step in error reconciliation is to review and correct process errors May 2009

  12. Individual File Errors • There is a hierarchical (phased) relationship with the 13 data files. The files are loaded in a defined order • An error in one file may cause errors “downstream” • Error reconciliation should be done in the same hierarchical order May 2009

  13. Error Processing Map May 2009

  14. Where are errors corrected? • Corrections for CEDARS should be done at the source: • Student Information Data System • Human Resources Data System • Special Education Data System • Other data collections maintained by the district • Data from the source is sent to OSPI • OSPI cannot correct source data May 2009

  15. How are corrections submitted? • CEDARS Corrections are currently processed by resubmitting data files • There is no unlock process because submission can be daily • Some data elements in CEDARS can be updated using a process similar to Manage Students in CSRS • This data editing process is in development and will be available in the fall • Just-in-time training will occur in the late summer May 2009

  16. Where are the Error Files? CEDARS errors are found in EDS. • Log in to EDS and select CEDARS from the application list • Select Reports/Exception Reports/CEDARS Exception May 2009
