The New York State Comprehensive Course Catalog

School Codes for the Exchange of Data (SCED)

The State Course Catalog was developed by NYSED based upon NCES course catalogs and in conjunction with a Field Workgroup comprised of representatives from over 45 professional organizations from around the state.

To ensure comparability among schools and districts, a statewide comprehensive course catalog is required for the reporting of course information. Although schools do not need to adopt these statewide codes for local use, it will be necessary to map local codes to State codes when reporting data to the SIRS. Local course codes will need to be matched to the statewide standardized course codes.
