Title of Collection: Statewide
Longitudinal Data System (SLDS)
Survey 2021–2023.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0933.
Type of Review: A revision of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 112.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 140.
Abstract: The National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), of the
Institute of Education Sciences (IES),
within the U.S. Department of
Education, is requesting clearance to
continue the Statewide Longitudinal
Data System (SLDS) Survey collection,
which is intended to provide insight on
State and U.S. territory SLDS capacity
for automated linking of K–12, teacher,
postsecondary, workforce, career and
technical education (CTE), adult
education, and early childhood data.
The SLDS Survey will continue to be
collected annually from State Education
Agencies (SEAs), and will help inform
NCES ongoing evaluation and targeted
technical assistance efforts to enhance
the quality of the SLDS Program’s
support to States regarding systems
development, enhancement, and use.
The request to conduct all activities
related to SLDS 2020–22, including
materials and procedures, was approved
by OMB in May 2020 (OMB #1859–
0933v.8), with a nonsubstantive change
request (OMB #1859–0933v.9) approved
in August 2020. The SLDS 2020–22
package included a new data collection
tool, a Google Form developed for an
electronic data collection. That tool was
not as successful in the 2020 data
collection as NCES would like (see
section A.3 for a richer discussion of
this). This new request is to conduct all
activities related to SLDS 2021–23. It
submits enhancements to the OMBapproved Survey, intended to bring
consistency to questions across sectors,
provide greater definition and clarity to
terminology and questions used within
the SLDS Survey, and address
pandemic-related response across states.
In addition, this request submits
screenshots of the new Qualtrics
information collection tool that will
replace the Google Form introduced for
SLDS 2020 and which will be used in
the 2021 SLDS Data Collection (for
proposed changes, see Appendix E) and
is planned for use in subsequent
collections. Finally, this request submits

screenshots of the updated webinar, as
the SLDS Program proposes the option
to host one or two SLDS Survey
webinars to familiarize respondents
with the collection tool and completion
process. All proposed changes are
captured within these documents,
including accompanying appendices.
