CRDC Update

[Michael Richards]

I made an inquiry to find out when the system is going live and this was their response.

Xmas vacation has been saved!

The new 2013-14 Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) system will launch in early January 2015. Currently, the system is in the final phases of testing. It is important to the Office for Civil Rights that we ensure your experience with the new collection tool will be positive, and that the system is intuitive and user-friendly when it launches. We intended to officially open the system on November 17^th, but due to unavoidable delays, we will be postponing the launch date to early January, after the winter holidays. The official due date for the 2013-14 CRDC will be set no earlier than 75 days after the official launch. Approximately two weeks prior to the official launch of the CRDC system, your school district will receive a letter with the official due date.  Once the system launches, you will receive an email from the CRDC system requesting you to verify your email address and create a password to access the website. We would encourage you to use this time to gather the required data and begin to prepare your submission.  Helpful information about preparing for the CRDC is available through the CRDC Resource Center at https://crdc.grads360.org, including flat file specifications, worksheets to save your data, and excel templates to create flat files. Additionally, the following planning documents may help you prepare for this important data collection:

The Resource Center also provides several tip sheets and responses to frequently asked questions that you might have concerning the CRDC. The CRDC Partner Support Center is also available to answer any questions you may have concerning the data collection process. You can contact the CRDC Partner Support Center by email atcr...@sanametrix.com or by phone at 844-338-2732. Many of you have already updated your contact information for the upcoming data collection submission. If you have not done so, please contact the Partner Support Center by phone at 844-338-2732 or e-mail via cr...@sanametrix.com to update your contact information if any changes need to be made.

Hopefully come February they send out one that says something like “Due to all these delays, we’ve just decided to cancel the whole event…” Perhaps too much to hope for? :~)

I like it.

I haven't seen anything yet and no one else in our district either.
