**CourseCode Complex Type

The CourseCode complex type is a standard code that identifies the organization of subject matter and related learning experiences provided for the instruction of students.

COURSE-IDENTIFICATION-SYSTEM (E1089) is a system that is used to identify the organization of subject matter and related learning experiences provided for the instruction of students.

SERVICE-ID (E0724) refers to the services supplied by staff.

Do not report audited courses or courses taken for local credit only. Do not report courses with SERVICE-IDs that begin with SA, SE, SR, SS, or 8.

EducationOrganizationReference Complex Type

The EducationOrganizationReference complex type represents the school that provided the reported instruction.

**EducationalOrgIdentity Complex Type

The EducationalOrgIdentity complex type includes information to link to a specific educational organization from the SchoolExtension complex type.

CAMPUS-ID (E0266) indicates the unique campus identification number registered with the Texas Education Agency. It is the linking of DISTRICT-ID with the campus identification number associated with the course transcript.

**StudentAcademicRecordReference Complex Type  

The StudentAcademicRecordReference complex type references the Student's academic record for a semester/school year that is associated with the CourseTranscriptExtension complex Type.

In the PEIMS Extended Year Submission (4), one StudentAcademicRecordReference Complex Type must be submitted for each unique class (course section) that was attended during the summer (between school years) for the purpose of a student attempting to earn dual credit.

CourseTranscriptExtension Complex Type

GRADE-LEVEL-CODE (E0017)  indicates the current grade level of the student.

The PASS/FAIL-CREDIT-INDICATOR-CODE is only reported for courses shown as completed on the StudentSectionAssociation Complex Type. 

The CourseTranscriptExtension Complex Type must reflect the PASS/FAIL-CREDIT-INDICATOR-CODE determined at the end of the course. 

For example: A student completes the first half of Chemistry, a two-semester course.  The course was failed, no credit was received (Code “02”). The second semester, this student completed the second half of Chemistry.  The course was passed and credit was received (Code “01”).  The district averages the grades earned in each half of the course to determine if course credit should be received. In this example, the average grade was passing. The CourseTranscriptExtension Complex Type should reflect a PASS/FAIL-CREDIT-INDICATOR-CODE of “08” (course was failed but credit was received) for the first half of Chemistry. Therefore, the Code “02” originally recorded must be changed to Code “08”.

For dual credit courses, PASS/FAIL-CREDIT-INDICATOR-CODE reflects the high school outcome for the course taken, not the college outcome.

DUAL-CREDIT-INDICATOR-CODE (E1011) indicates whether the student was eligible to receive both high school and college credit for a college course.

Advanced Placement courses reported on StudentAcademicRecordReference Complex Type cannot be reported as dual credit unless the course has been approved as an AP® course by the College Board through the AP® Course Audit.  A College Board-approved AP® course must adhere to the AP® course descriptions and be approved through the AP® Course Audit. This means the college instructor must have submitted his/her course syllabus and have received approval in advance.

ATC-INDICATOR-CODE (E1058) indicates a high school course for which college credit may be awarded by a post-secondary institution under the conditions of a local articulation agreement or the statewide Advanced Technical Credit (ATC) program agreement.

The Advanced Technical Credit program is being phased out, with the last ATC courses being offered in 2018-2019. 

ATC courses cannot be reported as dual credit courses.  Likewise, Dual Credit courses cannot be reported as local or statewide articulated (ATC) credit.  These rules are enforced by fatal validation rules.

DR5

COLLEGE-CREDIT-HOURS (E1081) indicates the number of college hours a student earned for the completion of a dual credit course.

If a student completes a dual credit course and does not pass the course, then the COLLEGE-CREDIT-HOURS will be reported as 0.

When a course is reported as eligible to receive dual credit, be cautious to avoid duplicating the college credit hours earned across multiple course sections.  College credit hours should generally only be reported when a student completes and passes a one semester course or the last part of a multi-part course.

Note: Do not report COLLEGE-CREDIT-HOURS for students who complete an OnRamps course through the University of Texas at Austin.

CAMPUS-ID-OF-ENROLLMENT (E0782) indicates the unique campus identification number of the campus in which the student is enrolled.

COURSE-SEQUENCE-CODE (E0948) identifies the unique part(s) of a course when a course is taught during a single grading period or semester or across multiple grading periods or semesters.

The COURSE-SEQUENCE-CODE identifies how the course was taught to the student during the school year, or in the summer.  The COURSE-SEQUENCE-CODE identifies the order in which the course was scheduled in the class scheduling system.

Dual credit COURSE-SEQUENCE-CODEs are used for dual credit courses only.  The length of the course for dual credit courses refers to the length of the college course, not the high school course.

CLASS-ID-NUMBER (E1056) is a number identifying a unique course section that is unique for a particular school year, campus, and SERVICE-ID.
