New Organization Seeks Improved Collection and Distribution of Education Data

The Data Quality Campaign (DQC) is pushing to improve the collection and use of high-quality data to drive school reform by encouraging all 50 states to implement statewide longitudinal data systems for education by 2009.  To do this, DQC will provide tools and resources to help states develop high-quality data systems, while providing a national forum for reducing duplication and promoting greater coordination and consensus among like-minded organizations.

Launched earlier this month, the DQC consists of the coordinated efforts of ten national organizations - Achieve, Inc, the Alliance for Excellent Education, Council of Chief State School Officers, The Education Trust, National Center for Educational Accountability, National Center for Higher Education Management Systems, National Governors Association Center for Best Practices, Schools Interoperability Framework Association, Standard & Poor’s School Evaluation Services, State Higher Education Executive Officers.  It is supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and managed by the National Center for Educational Accountability.
