The State Information System (SIS) Cycle 1 training will be located in the Educational Cooperatives during the months of July and August. A schedule of the training sites, dates and times is attached to this memo. The training schedules for SIS Cycles 2-7 will be released in a separate Commissioner’s Memo during the month of July and the training sessions will be held throughout the month of September.

The training sessions for SIS Cycle 1 range in dates from July 6 through July 27, 2005. It is essential that the State Reporting Coordinator, Financial System Administrator and/or Bookkeeper, and Student System Administrator from the district attend one of the training sessions. In some school districts one staff member may cover more than one of these areas of responsibility and, in that case, someone else who would benefit from the training may attend. Due to limited space, please send no more than three persons to the training.

Also attached to this memo is a Statewide Information System (SIS) Coordinators Application Form. This form is to be completed and returned ONLY IF the SIS Coordinator and/or the Cycle 1 Coordinator for the district have changed. Fax the completed form to the attention of Tinika Ricks, 501-682-5035.

This training will greatly benefit school districts by clarifying the state reporting process and providing the proper procedures to submit error free reports. There have been changes in required coding and other elements related to state reporting. Please make every effort to have the designated persons attend this training.
