To support institutions in gaining insights on student pathways, Harvard Strategic Data Project and ResearchEd partnered to develop the SDP PDP Extension, which enhances the existing free SDP-CTE Diagnostic Toolkit, helping postsecondary institutions answer questions like: ➡️ Are students more likely to complete some pathways than others? Are pathways equitably supporting students with different backgrounds and characteristics? ➡️ Are students dropping or transferring out of some pathways more than others? Where do they go? ➡️ Are there “gateway” courses that are getting in the way of completion for some pathways? ➡️ What credit accumulation patterns set students up for longer-term success? How many students are following these patterns? Join us for a free instructional training on how to apply this new diagnostic tool to your institution’s data: https://ow.ly/17VW50SXIVM Access the new Diagnostic toolkit: https://ow.ly/KPRY50SXIVL

@HarvardCEPR Strategic Data Project (#SDPfellow) Transforming the use of data in education to improve student outcomes
About us
Harvard's Strategic Data Project works with education organizations to transform their use of data to improve student outcomes. Since 2008, SDP has partnered with school districts, charter networks, state agencies, and nonprofit organizations across the country and around the world to bring high-quality research methods and data analysis to bear on education management and policy decisions. The Strategic Data Project recruits and trains data talent to move forward strategic priorities in our partner organizations through our fellowship program and offers short-term training opportunities for education data analysts through the SDP Institute. SDP is an initiative of the Center for Education Policy Research at Harvard University.

🚨 NEW TOOL RELEASE: As more postsecondary institutions offer credentials aimed at helping students succeed in the workforce, they are increasingly enrolling larger populations of students who have not historically been served by higher education. To improve retention and graduation rates, ensure workforce readiness, and promote equity, postsecondary leaders need more insight into the outcomes of these students so they can make informed decisions, implement targeted interventions, and develop strategies to support underserved populations. To enable postsecondary institutions to better understand patterns in student outcomes, Harvard Strategic Data Project, in collaboration with ResearchEd, has launched a free tool for institutions participating in the Postsecondary Data Partnership (PDP), a national effort to help postsecondary institutions understand student academic progress and success through data collection facilitated by the National Student Clearinghouse®. Participants receive analysis-ready files and dashboards detailing key performance indicators, including credit accumulation, gateway course completion, retention, persistence, and credentials. The PDP also provides data on part-time and transfer-in students, detailed demographics, and course information to identify support needs and track academic progress. To access the toolkit, visit OpenSDP at https://ow.ly/4EM850SXIN7 Join a free training on the tool: https://ow.ly/4nFc50SXIN8
