This series of training videos and supporting document are designed to provide districts and intermediate school districts (ISDs) with ways to improve data quality in the Michigan Student Data System (MSDS) for students with an individualized education program (IEP). The video content is for district personnel who input data into MSDS. However, it is helpful for special education personnel to be familiar with this information because special education personnel may be involved in reviewing and confirming the accuracy of the data prior to submission.
