REMINDER Substitute Teachers in the Consolidated Data Collection
Contact: NDE Helpdesk (888-285-0556 or nde.helpdesk@nebraska.gov)

By uploading/entering data now, your school will have sufficient time to correct any errors or potential violations to ensure that any substitute teachers hold a valid Nebraska certificate before the data collection closes on June 30, 2012. Needs to be completed by ESUs, Public, Nonpublic, State Operated and Interim Programs.
