Search Terms: Ed-Fi

This entity represents any type of list of designated students for tracking, analysis, or intervention.

NDE will be collecting programs in Cohort for the 2021-22 school year. These programs can be created in Program Admin > Programs > Programs. The ‘Program Category’ must be set to Cohort: Cohort for them to send in the Cohort resource and eventually tie a staff member and students back to them. The Cohort Program Category must be added to the Attribute dictionary in System Administration > Custom > Attribute/Dictionary > Program > Program Category in order to assign the Cohort:Cohort category.
