Research Branch Reports

The Inclusion of Online Education Data in the MLDS Inventory - A review with Recommendations

This report analyzed the need for inclusion of online education data in the Maryland Longitudinal Data System (MLDS). The report determined that online education data should be included because of the increase in the use of online and digital learning, such as virtual schools and online courses, in K-12 schools and postsecondary institutions. The report examined current trends in online education, both in Maryland and at a national level, and concluded with the recommendation that MLDS collect student data from online education and training programs and establish guidelines to improve data validity and reliability.

Preparation and Retention of the Early Childhood Care and Education Workforce in Maryland

This report examined the workforce outcomes of students who earned degrees or certificates in early childhood care and education (ECCE) related fields. Using MLDS data, the report found that over 40% of graduates from the 2008-2009 academic year to the 2012-2013 academic year were employed in an ECCE-related industry for all four quarters in the calendar year following graduation. Of the 40% employed in the year following graduation, half were still earning wages in an ECCE-related industry five years after graduation. These findings offered initial information on the ECCE workforce in Maryland.
