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 Update the DES by including "Course Identifier" in the Postsecondary Domain

Use Case Description Element Name: Course Identifier Element Definition: The actual code that identifies the organization of subject matter and related learning experiences provided for the instruction of students. Options: N/A

Use Case Background The CEDS Connection developed for the E-W Framework indicator "Gateway Course Completion" requires the specific course to be identified via the Course Identifier. Since this is a Postsecondary Connection, the element needs to be included in the DES' Postsecondary domain.
