Upcoming collections: The Fall 2018 General, EC Fall 2018, Migrant TSDL 2018-19, and 2018-19 SRM collections will open on Wednesday, Sept. 26.

GAD and REP (including NPSPR) MILogin Migration

The GAD, REP, and Nonpublic School Personnel Report have migrated from MEIS to a more robust security/logon system called MILogin. This moves CEPI’s applications closer to a single sign-on security stance. MILogin is the same security system currently used by MSDS and EEM.

For more information and to understand how users have been affected by this migration, please read the MILogin migration announcement.

FID 2017-18 Collection Now Available

The FID application is now open for the collection of 2017-18 financial data. FID data are due to CEPI by Thurs, Nov. 1. Support materials can be found on the FID web page. Information on the Michigan Public School Accounting Manual is located on MDE’s website.

Points of Pride Submissions

EEM Authorized Users can submit data in the Points of Pride section in the EEM. PoP data will be displayed on the Parent Dashboard for School Transparency beginning this fall.

For more information on how to view or edit PoP data in EEM, please see the Points of Pride in EEM document.
