| Abstract: | State leaders have a responsibility to use their data systems to help students seamlessly navigate transitions from high school into college, workforce training programs, the military, and apprenticeships. Many state leaders are meeting this responsibility by establishing initiatives to make enrolling in postsecondary education and workforce programs simpler for students. Through these programs, public postsecondary education institutions or providers of nondegree credentials proactively notify students who meet certain criteria that they are eligible for admission. This resource addresses the benefits of using data to help students pursue postsecondary education or workforce training, the challenges of implementing these initiatives, and how state agencies and institutions of higher education can navigate Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) compliance when implementing them. |
