Building a Multistate Governance System

WICHE’s Multistate Longitudinal Data Exchange (MLDE) facilitates data sharing between states from K-12 education, higher education, and labor agencies. For the past several years, WICHE has retained the Education and Employment Research Center at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to conduct an evaluation of the development and deployment of the MLDE.  This brief is one of a series written by EERC that explores the development of the MLDE and the various stages of building a multi-state governance system.
