States often publish data dictionaries or manuals that showcase which data elements their systems collect. This resource links to every public education-to-workforce data dictionary, data manual, or related document our team identified in early care and education, K-12, postsecondary and workforce data systems across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Explore the following data points in our 50-State Comparison:
- Multi-agency data sources.
- Early care and education sources.
- K-12 data sources.
- Postsecondary data sources.
- Workforce data sources.
This directory is part of our toolkit designed to support states in creating more effective data systems by using the Education-to-Workforce Indicators Framework created by the Gates Foundation and Mathematica.
