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.
This is for capturing needs not currently supported by the CEDS model. Please do not send or share actual data as examples in this issue or in attachments.
Use Case Background
The Workforce Workgroup proposes the addition of the “Number of Dependents” data element to the Workforce domain (Workforce | Workforce Program Participant | Program Participation). This should be defined as “The number of dependents who live with the student and receive more than half their support from them.” Option set should be the same as in https://ceds.ed.gov/element/001415
We need to know this information to incorporate household-based metrics into Workforce Program Participant outcomes and economic mobility measures and in the event childcare work-based assistance programs are available for incorporating into reporting.
Location of Element in the Domain Entity Schema
Workforce> Workforce Program Participant > Program Participation
