The Education Data Exchange Network (EDEN)is in the implementation phase of a multiple year effort to consolidate the collection of education information about States, Districts, and Schools in a way that improves data quality and reduces paperwork burden for all of the national education partners. To minimize the burden on the data providers, EDEN seeks to transfer the proposed data as soon as it has been processed for State, District, and School use. These data will then be stored in EDEN and accessed by federal education program managers and analysts as needed to make program management decisions. This process will eliminate redundant data collections while providing for the timeliness of data submission and use.
This decrease of 3,050 hours is a result of removing the Indian Education Student Form (Attachment F)and student data from Attachment B-4, and moving it the Office of Indian Educations Formula Grant EASIE information collection, 1810-0021.
