During the webinar, we will discuss several key topics, including:

• Aggregate submission (no process change)

• Optional school-to-state workflows

• What has changed (and not changed) with the transition from UpMetrics

• How states retain control over communication and submission

The primary goal of this webinar is to provide clarity regarding the participation survey process. It is important to note that the session is intended to inform rather than make commitments. We aim to support states in understanding their available options and how they can effectively manage their participation data.
