The Department
stated that 2005 will be the only year that data elements currently
gathered through the CSPR are to be collected through parallel
processing by way of paperwork and PBDMI's Education Data Exchange
Network (EDEN). In future years, most data elements currently
collected through the CSPR will be collected under EDEN. Further,
the next CSPR package should only include data elements that are
selected through the Department- wide approval process established
for this purpose.
