Staff Demographics

This category captures information about staff members and their associated schools. The Staff Demographics category includes the following data views and resources:

Staff Demographic

This view captures the core demographic record for teachers and staff as published in the Staff entity within the StaffAssociation interchange. For each staff member in the district in the current year, the layout provides the School Name, Teacher Number, Staff Name, Date of Birth, Stakeholder ID, Unique Person ID, Last Published Date, and the Publishing ID.

Each staff member must first have an assigned Unique Person Identifier (Unique ID) in order for the staff record to be published; if needed, use the Request button to initiate the assignment of any missing Unique IDs. In turn, the publishing of all other staff-related Ed-Fi data is dependent on the successful publishing of the staff record; as needed, use the Publishing Errors data view to identify and resolve any issues.

LEAs and Schools can also review pending and published Ed-Fi reporting data for individual staff members from the staff AzEDS Publishing page, accessed from Staff > Information > AZ State Report Information > AzEDS Publishing.

Staff Unique ID Status

This view does not have a corresponding Ed-Fi entity, but captures the current status of Staff Unique IDs. Whenever staff data are published to the state ODS, the Ed-Fi process checks for the presence of a Staff Unique ID, and automatically requests a new ID for any staff member who is missing one.

For each staff member in the district in the current year, the layout provides the School Name, Teacher Number, Staff Name, Date of Birth, Stakeholder ID, Staff Unique ID, Status, Last Published Date, and the Publishing ID. The Staff Unique ID Status column displays one of the following: Unassigned, Still Requesting, or the Staff Unique ID for assigned IDs.
