Application Guide

1. Application Overview

What is it? The CSPR Files module allows users to generate the CSPR files containing the Career and Technical Education data submitted to the Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education (OCTAE) as part of the EDFacts initiative through the Education Data Exchange Network (EDEN).

How will it help? This module automates the creation of the CSPR files that would otherwise have to be calculated and created manually.

Why do I need this? The annual submission of certain Career and Technical Education enrollment data fulfills statutory requirements of the Perkins law that provides funding for Career and Technical Education programs.
