TSDL – New SCED Version 6 Resources Posted

With the transition of SCED V1 to V6, we have posted two new resources to help with your TSDL data submission:

1. SCED Code Changes V1 to V6: provides the SCED Course Codes that were available to use in SCED Version 1 (used for school year 2019-20 and prior) that have either changed or are no longer available in Version 6.
2. SCED V6 REP Crosswalk: provides the REP Assignment Codes that correspond to each SCED Course Code.

Both of these documents can be found under "Help and Training" on the TSDL web page.
