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.

Use Case Title Broaden the meaning of Emergency Contact Indicator

Use Case Description Changing the definition from “…emergency contact for the learner.” To “…emergency contact for the related person.” broadens the scope of the definition without removing the present meaning that this person is the emergency contact for the learner. Learner can be known through context. Additionally, this element exists in the IDS under PersonRelationship which may indicate an intention for this broader meaning all along. Similarly, another CEDS element “Primary Contact Indicator” already has broader meaning in its definition. This would align with the proposed change for Emergency Contact Indicator.

Use Case Background Provide information related to why these changes/additions are needed.
