Standards Council (PESC) Conference in May about data quality. Here is a
description of the session:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Data Quality:
Billions of bytes of data are exchanged in the higher education industry.
Academic Transcripts, CommonLine, Enrollment Information. This data is
all exchanged electronically. But, how good is this data? Hear
representatives from Admissions, Financial Aid and the Department of Education
discuss some of these issues. Suggestions for improving data quality will
also be discussed. (This session is associated with the Data Ownership
session).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><font size=3 face=Arial><span

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><font size=3 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The basic theme is “What is
the quality of the current data being exchanged and what can be done to improve
it?”<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

like me to present, email them to me and I’ll incorporate into the
presentation. The Department of Education and its contractors will be in
attendance so it will be a good opportunity to have our voice heard.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
