A Common Postsecondary Data Dictionary for Perkins Accountability has been released by the National Research Center for Career Technical Education, for use by practitioners, researchers and policymakers. A goal of the Dictionary is to  provide a standard in which all states can crosswalk their own data. Perkins accountability specialists in 12 states contributed to the Dictionary. These participating states were able to uniformly define many data elements that can be used to construct and report on postsecondary accountability measures required by the Perkins Act.Â
