New Process For Sharing Teacher Data
|
February 1, 2009 - ProTraxx, the leading provider of professional development management software
for public school districts in the state, announces EzCertification Data Exchange, its
collaborative initiative with the Connecticut Department of Education for electronic sharing
of selected educator certification data. The new, entirely "green" process automates existing
paper-based efforts for the sharing of data between the state and educational organizations
and complements ProTraxxs widely utilized educator credential tracking application, EzTraxx Online.
Over the last 10 years, ProTraxx has worked with more than 1,000 Connecticut schools and educational
programs to streamline and simplify the record-keeping mandates for schools as professional development
providers. Its new data exchange service includes the monthly automatic population of selected
certification data from the states certification database to clients employing educators
statewide and eliminates the paper-based CEU reporting methods for the individual educator.
The population of selected certification data within the EzTraxx system will ensure accurate,
up-to-date information is published to the educators individual summary pages and define their
requirements for certificate maintenance, and eliminating the manual method of data entry by school personnel.
Through an electronic audit process, the State Bureau of Educator Standards and Certification
will have EzTraxx Online access to appropriate ProTraxx CEU transcript data compiled by providers
with EzTraxx to perform annual compliance verification, eliminating a substantial effort dedicated
to the existing paper-based methods.
