AIR Seeks IPEDS Trainers
The Association for Institutional Research (AIR) seeks experienced IPEDS Keyholders, coordinators, and data users to assist in developing and delivering IPEDS training. Through a contract with RTI, funded by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), AIR delivers face-to-face national workshops, provides online courses and tutorials, and creates additional training materials for IPEDS survey components and data tools. To accomplish these tasks, AIR recruits experienced IPEDS users to develop and deliver a curriculum that takes a broad view of IPEDS to assure the quality of data submission and improve the skills of individuals using these data. Visit the AIR website to read more about this opportunity: http://www.airweb.org/EducationAndEvents/IPEDSTraining/Pages/IPEDSTrainers.aspx
