How to Report Course Codes
Report accurate course codes aligned to an Indiana identified course with academic standards for each course a student is enrolled.
Report a separate course code and outcome for each course a student is enrolled.
Courses should not be combined due to multiple grade levels being taught in the same classroom.

Report a staff section record (staff scheduled or responsible for) associated with each student academic record.
Staff section records must align to the student academic record to create the relationship between the staff and the student for course outcome reporting.
Staff section records are not required when reporting transfer credits from out of state, homeschool, or other means that would not be provided from an Indiana Educational Organization through normal scheduling.
How to Report Course Outcomes
