The webinar focused on a national overview of state’s Phase I SSIP based on the SSIP content analysis that TA providers completed in summer of 2015. DaSy, ECTA, IDC, and NCSI co-sponsored the webinar. Several early childhood colleagues shared the results of the SSIP content analysis.

The presentation provides strategies for making predictions of the ways in which improvements in data quality will impact the summary statements and describes different ways to impact and measure changes in data quality over time. This can help states currently struggling to predict how improvements in data quality will impact the value of the summary statements describing child outcomes. Helpful handouts are included.
