In the coming months, the State Board will continue to convene the “Data Sharing and Accountability” workgroup to plot a way forward using the principles outlined above with the goal of developing a data-sharing governance structure that facilitates compliance with federal requirements. As part of this process, the State Board is working with EDD, SBE/CDE, DOR, CCCCO and other state plan partners to develop an agreement that does the following:

o Core program partners have been made aware that use of the base wage file is required under the federal regulations.
o Each core program will need to negotiate a data-sharing agreement with EDD to make proper use of the base wage file.
