This week on "Off the Cuff," Jill and Sarah discuss some last-minute actions from the Biden administration impacting NSLDS Postscreening Results and the upcoming gainful employment (GE) and financial value transparency (FVT) reporting process. Jill kicks things off with a recap of the NSLDS postscreening functionality along with a new report that is now available to schools. Sarah then provides listeners with an update on beta testing for batch corrections and explains what the department’s reopening of the gainful employment (GE) and financial value transparency (FVT) reporting process means for schools.
