The 22-Credit Validation Group includes several validations that assist districts and the state in identifying students who have completed at least 22 credits worth of study while not being identified as having earned a diploma.
These reports are generated using the Data Validation Report and include three validation rules:
- 22 Credit Student Detail
- 22 Credit Summary
- 22 Credit Likely Course Code List
See NC 22 Credit Reports (October 2025) for information on report logic and report layout details.

They can also be generated in the Data Validation Groups and Data Validation Rules tools.
