  • MDE will continue to host their monthly webinar series called the Data SIG, next webinar is scheduled for November 19th @ 1:30pm.

Refer to the MARSS memo dated August 20, 2018, for the description of Ed-Fi.  More information on Programs and Initiatives can be found at https://education.mn.gov/MDE/fam/count/ or information on Business and Finance at https://education.mn.gov/MDE/dse/count/ finally to stay informed or ask questions.
