2024-2025 ADVISER Data Elements Document Updated – 211 Alternative Diploma Exit Code Removed

Public Districts

A revised 2024-2025 ADVISER Data Elements document (v9.1) is now available on the ADVISER Resources webpage. The document has been updated with additional guidance – please refer to Appendix A for the list of changes.

One major change that will affect ADVISER data submissions is the removal of the 211 enrollment exit withdraw code “Completer with an Alternative/Modified Diploma” effective immediately. (Additional guidance clarifying the codes used for exiting Special Education students has also recently been published in this SOS Newsletter.)

Any students who already have a 211 exit withdraw code reported in 2024-2025 will have their exit code removed from ADVISER by the NDE. This will trigger validation error #713: “Exit Date is Present Without Exit Code”. For Districts affected, please update these students’ data before the 6/15/2025 audit window.

Civil Rights Data Collection now open for 2023-2024 school year


DUE DATE
03/07/2025

Public Districts

The Office of Civil Rights’ CRDC submission system is now open at https://surveys.nces.ed.gov/crdc/. Districts must enter, review, and submit their data by March 7, 2025. Superintendents should have received email notices about accessing the submission system directly from the CRDC support center. If your district needs access please contact them via https://crdc.communities.ed.gov/.

NDE will NOT submit any data on behalf of districts. However, the NDE is providing reports and files via the ADVISER Validation website, which provide some of the CRDC school data tables. This information is derived from locked 2023-2024 ADVISER data. Districts may export the CRDC Download File reports in a .csv file format, which the CRDC submission system will accept via their File Upload process. (Please refer to the directions in the ADVISER report descriptions.)

Please note: not all CRDC submission data is covered by ADVISER. Districts will still have to manually provide some data on their own. Additionally, many Student Information System vendors provide a method for exporting your SIS data into a CRDC report or .csv file as well. Multiple files may be uploaded to the CRDC website and the latest file will overwrite any previous file which contained the same data. Districts must “submit” their CRDC data once it has all been entered and validated, at which time the data will be locked.
