Facilitating Development of a Multistate Longitudinal Data Exchange

WICHE is coordinating a pilot data exchange incorporating longitudinal information captured by the K-12 education, postsecondary education, and workforce sectors in four states. With the goal of yielding a rich resource for research to inform public policy, this project will focus on the necessary architecture, governance structures, and standard reporting, all while complying with applicable privacy laws.
