It's time to hold the date for IDC's Interactive Institute 2024! Our annual Interactive Institutes create opportunities for states to come together with each other and our TA providers to learn more about building a culture of high-quality data, developing and maintaining innovative data quality practices, and making effective use of tools to facilitate improved outcomes for children and youth with disabilities. So mark your calendars and hold that date!

And we're back! Last time on A Date with Data, host Amy Bitterman discussed IDC's annual review of state SPP/APR submissions with TA specialists Rachel Wilkinson and Nancy Johnson. Now for the big finish. Join us for part two of this illuminating conversation full of insights into the patterns, trends, and tips that your own state might find invaluable during its next SPP/APR period.

Preschool data play an important role in helping us to understand and shape the educational landscape, especially for children with disabilities and their families. It’s not uncommon for those who work with Section 619 preschool data to feel both privileged to do such meaningful work and overwhelmed by the details of it. First, we want you to know that you’re not alone, and second, we want to offer you support as a 619 professional through our renewed 619 Data Quality Peer Group. Read on to learn more and get the inside scoop.

Lights, mics, action…one more time!

Join host Amy Bitterman for part two of this very lively episode of A Date with Data.
