EMIS Tools

Completed IEP, ETR, and ISP tasks in SpecialServices Classic contain information required for reporting to Ohio’s Education Management Information System (EMIS). EMIS tools in SpecialServices Classic provide the ability to extract the information from these tasks to a file—the EMIS extract—and import the extract on the Special Education Import (SpS) screen in  StudentInformation for further processing and final submission to EMIS.

To assist you in validating that the correct information displays in the EMIS extract, you can run the EMIS Review report, which lists students whose tasks contain information reportable to EMIS. The EMIS Review report also lets you view or edit (depending on your security privileges) the EMIS Data Collection Form. See “Running the EMIS Review Report.”

All IEP, ETR, and ISP tasks are included in the EMIS extract by default. You can choose to exclude specific tasks, if necessary. See “Excluding Tasks from EMIS.”
