Certify™ is Certica’s hosted data certification service, which provides districts with an easy, cost-effective method for automatically validating and monitoring data on a daily basis – a process which Certica calls “data certification.” Certify ensures that student, school and district data are complete, accurate and up-to-date, by providing an easy and streamlined process.

Using Certify, school staff – such as registrars, attendance clerks and administrative staff – are alerted each day of specific data “rules” which are in error, so staff can take action to research, reconcile or correct data in their student information system, or other administrative system. District staff can monitor data across groups of schools – whether for a specific program (such as English Language Learning), for a particular compliance area (such as Discipline), or across the entire district.

Why Does Our District Need Certify?
Certify can help your district:

• Ensure that district administrators make informed decisions and have a greater degree of confidence in student, school and teacher data.
• Automate and streamline the process of data validation, monitoring and correction, so you save time and minimize the resources necessary to achieve and maintain high quality data.
• Enable school and district staff to take a more pro-active role in managing data, reducing the impact on district technology resources.
• Maximize state and federal funding – and reduce the chance of penalties and audits – by reporting accurate and complete data, in a timely manner.
