CERT004

A student has no Ethnicity/Race data.

KNOWN BUG #5187 - a few students are getting a fatal CERT004 error when race/ethnicity are correctly populated.

CERT025

The sum of all teacher FTE's (Full Time Equivalents) within the school has either increased or decreased significantly from the previous year.

The school's count of teachers providing English Learner education services has either increased or decreased significantly from last year's EL teacher count.

CERT046

The sum of Staff FTE for all Job Classifications for an individual staff member in the LEA is more than 200%.

CERT047

A course section includes a SEID for which there is no valid teaching assignment information.

CERT048

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?"

CERT049

A Staff Assignment was reported for a SEID that has no demographics.

CERT050

There are no administrators at the LEA.

There are no pupil services staff at the LEA.

CERT065

The Number of  English Learners (ELs) Receiving Education Services has either increased or decreased significantly when compared with the previous year’s count.

CERT068

No course sections have been identified as NCLB compliant for this school.

CERT076

A staff member with a non-classroom/support assignment was not employed for the Report Period.

CERT077

No student course section data were submitted for an enrolled student with enrollment status of Primary, excluding Students with Disabilities on IEPs enrolled at the District Level that are not in participating Adult Age Students with Disabilities in Transition Status programs

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.  

CERT080

The sum of all pupil services FTE within the school has either increased or decreased significantly from the previous year.

CERT081

No course section data was submitted for a student with Enrollment Status of Secondary or Short Term.

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.

Or, in other words - your CRSE file was uploaded with at least one teacher record marked as "multiple teacher" (think co-teachers, team teaching or a job share situation).  Having just one of the two teacher's records in the CRSE file, however, is not cool.  You gotta have BOTH.  That means a record for teacher A and a record for teacher B too, and in the same file.
