The Data Quality Campaign (DQC) is a non-partisan, nonprofit organization that advocates for and supports states in the U.S. to develop robust data systems. Data systems can give families, educators, and other decision-makers access to valuable information on learner performance and achievement over time.

This work has been driven by recognition of past and current inequalities, inefficiencies, and the siloed nature of the nation’s education, childcare, and workforce systems.

Examples of DQC's work include:

• 10 Essential Elements of Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems
  • Assists with national advocacy efforts for states to collect and use critical data through data systems
• The Data Champions Collaborative
  • The Collaborative is comprised of 40 national organizations and brings partners together to create visions for how states can enable access for all.
