Certification Error - Fall 2

Surprise! Even though you've successfully uploaded all four Fall 2 files without error, you may be in for some additional errors. The "fifth wheel" of the Fall 2 certification process requires you to clear any fatal errors related to the certification process itself.

Remember, if you can clear any fatal errors before the Fall 2 window closes, you can always correct additional errors during the "amendment window."

For additional information about the Fall 2 certification process, feel free to download this overview presentation. (You do need to be a registered member in order to download any files, or to ask questions or contribute to the community forums, but it's totally free and community-driven, because we're cool like that.)

A teacher was reported who was employed on Census day but has no Non-classroom based job assignments or assigned Course Section records.

In other words, you are trying to report a teacher (because you've already uploaded a staff demographic and staff assignment file), but you are getting a cert error because that teacher doesn't have any course records associated with her/him (likely), or they are a teacher on special assignment or something and don't have a non-teaching assignment.

So the system is asking you "Did you forget to upload this teacher's course records?"

English Translation: You have a student enrolled in your school on Census Day (first Wednesday of October), but there is no student course section information in the system yet. You must upload an SCSE file that has at least one course associated to this student. You will continue to get this CERT error until that is resolved.

CERT079

A course section does not have any associated student course section records.

In other words, you've uploaded a record using the crse file upload but there are no records of any students enrolled in that section.

CERT082

When the "Multiple Teacher Code" is populated "true", you must have two or more Course Section records with the same Class ID and different SEIDS for the same Course Section. In other words, you have set up a course to be taught by more than one teacher, but you have only created a single course section record where there should be two.
