A P-20W System is a Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems (SLDS) that links data from Early Learning, K-12, Higher Education and Workforce. P = Preschool 20 = Grade 20 or higher education W = Workforce Why is this project important for NC? The P-20W system will greatly enhance North Carolina's ability to track student performance across years and sectors, help evaluate institutions and program performance, analyze data in more detail to validate or improve performance. With the system in place, the state will be able to produce existing and new reports more quickly and with fewer resources. With this data, North Carolina will be able to answer questions like, "Which preschool programs best prepare students for kindergarten?" and "How successful are college graduates in the workforce by major or credential?"
