State Courses
This category represents the official course catalog for the state of Vermont including state Course Codes, Course Titles and other related information as downloaded from the state in the Course entity within the Education Organization interchange.
State Course Listing
This view captures the valid list of Vermont courses. In order to support the exchange of both current year information as well as student transcripts, courses from current and past years are included. The layout includes the State Course Code, Academic Subject Area, and State Course Title, along with the HS Course Requirement indicator, the number of Course Parts, and the Effective Begin and End Date for each course.
All course data that is subsequently published to the state from PowerSchool must bear a valid state course code. If a CourseCode does not match a CourseCode in the downloaded Course entity, it will typically result in an error and/or be prevented from publishing.
