You must have an account to register. Upon login, click KIDS and KIDS Training to access courses.

Who should attend? Anyone who works with student data - either submitting the data or preparing it for submission or signing off on submitted data. Participants may want to complete some self-paced tutorials before class for the basics. Introduction to KIDS/KEDS is recommended for staff with little to no KIDS experience. Uploading Data in KIDS Tutorials is recommended for staff struggling with uploading data. 

The course will focus on using KIDS data, understanding submission types and methods and be more hands-on than in previous years.
