P-20 Data Link Project

The P-20 (preschool to workforce) Data Link project will link information from the Colorado Department of Education to information at five other state agencies, including the Colorado Department of Higher Education and the Colorado Department of Human Services.  The ultimate outcome of this project is aimed at ensuring students graduating from high school are ready for postsecondary education as well as workforce success, made possible by providing key decision-makers with more complete information about programs, trends and practices in Colorado schools.  One example of how this will work is that the system can illustrate if a child benefits more when provided early childhood education as compared to peers who don’t.  The P-20* Data Link project provides the infrastructure by which this information can be collected.
