DATA VALIDATION OVERVIEW
Assessments & Accountability v 1.010
Data Validation Overview
SUSPENSE DATA IDENTIFICATION
When data are loaded, CALPADS …matches the SSID and demographic data (gender, date of birth
year) in the assessment results file with the SSID in CALPADS that has the same demographics
verifies that the student was enrolled in the results record LEA at the time of testing (using LEA Testing Window)
checks to see that the test vendor provided the date needed to verify enrollment (using SSID Administration Date)
If one of these conditions is not met, CALPADS places the record in suspense
SSID Administration Date: Date in an SSID’s assessment results record that is used to identify student profile records that were valid at the time of testing. STAR = Testing Start Date; CAHSEE = ELA Test Date and Math Test Date; CELDT = Date Testing Completed
Assessments & Accountability v 1.011
Data Validation Overview
Suspense data can be managed both Online & in Batch
Both methods are accessed from the Assessment menu
Functions allow for management of Match Results
– LEA Suspense– LEA Matched– CDE Suspense

REPORTING OVERVEW
Assessments & Accountability v 1.013
Reporting Overview
REPORTING PROCESS
Assessment reports display vendor assessment results data and the matched CALPADS Student Profile data
These data are matched when …
− The results data are loaded for a Program Administration (e.g. STAR ANNUAL Admin, CAHSEE JUL Admin, etc.)
− The LEA or CDE matches a results record that could not be matched in the results load (i.e. Suspense Resolution)
− The nightly Suspense Process identifies that the data condition no longer exists that placed a record in suspense – due to data changes made by the LEA
Assessments & Accountability v 1.014
Reporting Overview
Once results data are matched with CALPADS data, the data are available in the AADS for reporting
Report content for a Program Administration can continue to change as long as suspense processing and data loading are occurring for that Program Administration
A schedule for when data for the various assessment programs are loaded is provided in the reporting component of this Assessment and Accountability training
When assessment data are loaded, Assessment and Accountability Coordinators will receive an email

GETTING STARTED
Assessments & Accountability v 1.022
Getting Started
CDE sets up the Calendar for each Program Administration, which indicates the Testing Window for each LEA
CDE SET-UP
LEA Testing Window: The range of days that indicate an LEA’s valid testing days for an Administration that is used to validate a student’s enrollment at the time of testing.
STAR The calendar for the ANNUAL STAR Administration is unique to each LEA
The LEA Testing Window is determined from the schedule for testing provided by the LEA to the testing vendor for each Administration Type (MC, WA, EP). The vendor provides the LEA level data to a CALPADS directory from which it is retrieved nightly by an automated FTP process and loaded into CALPADS. CALPADS calculates the Window. The Begin date is the earliest First Test Date from all of an LEA’s Administration Types. The end date is the latest Last Test Date from all of the LEA’s Administration Types.
The Window can be extended by CDE in case of emergencies, etc.if a school will test outside of the Window.
CAHSEE The calendar for each CAHSEE Administration is the same for each LEA
The LEA Testing Window is determined by CALPADS from the current year calendar, since CAHSEE Administrations are defined as calendar months (e.g. JUL, OCT, NOV, etc.)
CELDT The calendar for each CELDT Administration is the same for each LEA
The LEA Testing Window is determined by CALPADS from the current year calendar, since CELDT Administrations are defined as calendar months (e.g. JUL, AUG, etc.)
