The Goal of the Grant Program
The overarching, long-term goal of this program is to increase states' capacity to conduct meaningful analyses and research that will guide decision-making and result in improved instruction and learning of all students.
An additional goal of this program is to leverage the work supported with grant funds to facilitate the development and use of longitudinal data systems by other State and local education agencies. This will be achieved, in part, by disseminating lessons learned and non-propriety products/solutions developed by recipients of these grants.

Successful Strategies for Developing SLDS – Lessons Learned
Necessary components of SLDS projects that are emerging from the most successful projects:Well organized governance structure to manage data ownership, decisions, and communicationsFormalized structures for working closely with LEAs and other stakeholders on designing, testing, and using SLDS and its portalsEffective communications about the project to stakeholdersHigh quality SEA IT staff working closely with state program offices

Interstate Data Compatibility and Linking to Postsecondary and Labor Data
• Rising interest among states to figure out how to build data structures for seamless transfers of student records across state lines
• Debate about the necessity for storing SSNs to allow for effective e-Transcripts and reliable connections to post-secondary and labor data
• Difficulties of securing data exchange agreements especially across state lines
