NRS Data Leaders
The First 90 Day Checklist is a tool created by NRS to help new NRS data leaders develop a strategic plan for the first 90 days in their role. This tool breaks down major tasks into three 30-day increments:
- Learn the Lay of the Land
- Assess Data Quality and Use in your Program and Identify Goals
- Develop a Strategic Plan for Meeting the Identified Goals
The tool highlights key tasks that will help individuals new to the role establish themselves as data leaders and create a plan to help them navigate their new role.
Being a data leader for the National Reporting System for Adult Education (NRS) can be one of the most important, challenging, and interesting jobs. Yet, as with many jobs, it may come with a sharp learning curve. To help orient new NRS data leaders to their role, the NRS project staff conducted a panel discussion with two state adult education directors and a state NRS expert about their recommendations on what a new data leader can expect and plan to work on during the first 90 days in their role. This NRSTips summarizes the speakers’ key points.
In this webinar, participants heard from state adult education directors and NRS project staff about their recommendations on what a new leader can work on during the first 90 days in their role. This webinar also highlighted The First 90 Days: A Checklist for New NRS Data Leaders, a NRS tool created to help new data leaders breakdown major tasks.
