NRS Institute for Teachers - Your Data Matters: How Teachers Influence NRS Reporting and Results

The recording from this February 13, 2026, training is available with timestamps for each content category for easy reference.

We strongly encourage administrators to use this time-stamped video and these slides with live links to share this information with their teachers about their vital role in collecting and reporting student data.

Why is it important to share this information with staff? Data is how we tell our students’ stories as they progress through their adult education journey. Accurate data is essential to Adult Education funding. TEACHERS are uniquely positioned through their relationships with their learners to help capture that data and help our students succeed!
