Data entry of VTIN & other manual entries [E-lert for April 7]

REMINDER: Double check and double check again with the school data manager if your SAR kicks out an audit exception regarding NCVPS teachers not being Highly Qualified (HQ). NCVPS requires teachers to be HQ before hiring. There are a number of steps that involve manual data entry to derive at the final outcome exported from the SAR. It is easy to misread a line of transaction and misinterpret a teacher's VTIN from another on the enrollment report. Much appreciation for the obvious rapport developed among DLAs and DMs. Continue to work together and proof your entries from NCVPS to NC WISE to eliminate initial audit exceptions on the SAR.

VTIN and SAR Information for NCWise [E-lert for March 4]

All SAR data requirements on NCVPS teachers, (VTIN, yrs exp, ethnicity, race), are now available in columns on your NCVPS Enrollment Report. The Enrollment report is in Excel format and can be accessed from your NCVPS Registration System, Enrollments tab, populating the fields to Export to Excel above the list of courses. DLAs will need to provide this information to the school data managers. The VTIN report in the DLA Spa is no longer kept updated.

NCVPS Teacher Information (VTIN) for eSIS input [e-lert for Oct. 7]

Most have already provided NCVPS Teacher information to school Data Managers (DMs) for their input into eSIS. If you have not provided this information to DMs already, please expedite. The updated "VTIN" file is available for your review and is posted in the DLA Spa, last tab, "NC WISE Teacher Info". There are two documents that contain teacher information:

1) "VTIN - Summer-Fall, 2010" - This document contains teacher information on all teachers contracted with NCVPS (which includes all courses except Macro/Micro Econ, & German).

2) "External Teachers - 2009-2010" - This document contains teacher information for the only two NCVPS external affiliations, Florida Virtual (Macro/Micro Econ), and Oklahoma State University (German).

REF item #1 above - The VTINs (bogus SSNs) are eventually converted to actual SSNs (per requirement for SAR). The conversion is done via a file coordinated between the CTO of NCVPS and NC WISE at DPI.

REF item #2 - Once the VTIN (bogus SSN) and "experience code" listed is recorded in eSIS, it's coding automatically flags the system these are external providers, and therefore, no actual SSN is required.

The NC WISE Virtual Teacher ID Numbers (VTIN) for Spring 10 are now available.

Please find this spreadsheet in this DLA spa under NCWISE TEACHER INFO tab and it will need to be downloaded and provided to the DATA MANAGERS for their entry. It will be the DLA's responsibility to pull the enrollment export for their school. The export will list the teacher's name for each enrollment. The VTIN info will be listed by each teacher's name in the spreadsheet we are distributing.
