CEDStandards / CEDS-Elements

The Common Education Data Standards (CEDS) are an education data management initiative whose purpose is to streamline the understanding of data within and across P-20W institutions and sectors. CEDS includes a common vocabulary complete with standard elements names, definitions, and option sets. This repository contains all the CEDS elements, definitions, option sets and their definitions, and entities and definitions. Its purpose is to expand that vocabulary to meet the needs of every education stakeholder. The expanded vocabulary is then added to the CEDS Integration Data Store and CEDS Data Warehouse – the other two repositories located here.

Has USED provided any guidance on persons whose gender differs from their genetic sex? (See comment below)

Per Trina Anderson, Director OIS @ CEPI: "Given there is a distinction between sex and gender, my question is whether a field is non-traditional for the gender or non-traditional for sex. For example, if computer science is non-traditional for females, is a man who identifies as a woman considered non-traditional if he is in this field? I think this is an essential/important distinction because any efforts to increase female participation in STEM fields could be easily masked if there is an influx of men identifying as women in the field."

This is a good topic of discussion for the October CEDS Open Source Community Monthly Meeting. I will add it to the agenda for Monday, October 2, 2023, at 2:00 PM ET. Part of the discussion will be the process for the CEDS community in creating an element that aligns presently with the reporting requirements, but implementing in a way that ensures CEDS is ready for when those reporting requirements change in the future.

From the OSC Monthly call today, recommendation to change the element name from "CTE Nontradtional Gender Type" to "Perkins Nontraditional Gender Type" to indicate the definition and options are used for and come directly from Perkins reporting and legislation.
