EDFacts relies on the Education Data Exchange Network (EDEN), a centralized portal through which states submit their educational data to the U.S. Department of Education.

Short Statement: The net burden change reflects the collection of the Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) from all school districts in 2011-2012. As stated in the approved ICR, ED has submitted this change to increase the respondents from 7,500 to 15,000 school districts. The 59 state agencies providing data to EDFacts remain the same. As a result of the CRDC respondent increase, the burden hours have increased. However, there is no change in the data elements.
