FLORIDA AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR TRANSFERRING EDUCATIONAL RECORDS
FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
OFFICE OF APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT (OADS)

Revised: July 1, 2018

Student Course Information

1.	Record Type:	I04 -	All items 1-65 are valid for interdistrict record and Bright Futures record transfer.
		S04 -	Items 1-20, 28, 34, 40, 46, 52, 58, and 60-65 are valid for transcripts and Bright Futures record transfer.

2.	Transfer one record per course per year or credit earned period per year. The one exception is credit recovery courses. These courses are repeatable multiple times. However, the maximum credit that can be awarded is 1.00. A maximum of 40 course records, excluding credit recovery courses,may be sent for a student during a school year.
3.	If the district grading scale is different from the state 4.0 scale, the district grading scales and the definition of any local flags should be in the comment fields on the Student School Year record.
4.	If elementary students are in self-contained courses the self-contained course number should be used with each subject area in which the student is participating. The abbreviated course title would be district defined with a maximum of 20 characters. For example a first grade self-contained class could be sent as: 5100070 Int Lang Arts 5100070 Mathematics 5100070 Sci/Health/Soc St
5.	Courses in progress at the time a student transfers must contain a 'P' on the Course Flag field.
6.	Course in Progress Information: See the attached course in progress grades write-up for an explanation of each field and examples of how the fields should be used.
7.	The presence of binary zeroes in data fields causes significant problems for several institutions in the receipt of student records. A transaction will be rejected if non-displayable characters are sent in the data unless found in Filler Reserved for Local Use (last 9 bytes of each record type). Please use some other appropriate character (e.g., SPACES) with which to initialize your records before sending them.
8.	Required fields are indicated by an asterisk (*) next to the field name.
9.	Special characters, tilde (~), caret (^), and grave accent (`), are used as delimiters in the translation of FASTER to SPEEDE/ExPRESS. They are reserved symbols and as such cannot be included in data sent through FASTER to a SPEEDE/ExPRESS institution.

If the student has a social security number and provides this number to the school district, the Student Number Identifier, Florida, will have the following format:

First 9 digits:

the student's Social Security Number; and

The 10th digit:

the letter "X".

If a SPEEDE/ExPRESS institution does not provide a valid social security number or high school student number identifier, the value will be "999999999G".

If the student does not provide a Social Security Number to the school district, the school district will assign a Student Number Identifier, Florida, to the student, formatted as follows:

For any student entering a Florida school district for the first time, the first 2 digits will represent the district of initial entry into the Florida School System.

Last 8 digits

Course Flag

Up to four characters describing course attributes which give additional information needed by the district for counseling, tracking of credits, flagging for use with weighted grade point averages, etc. The letter or number codes defined below will be standard statewide. Any time one of the codes below is printed under "Course Flag" on the permanent record printout, it must correspond to the meaning given below.

Generic State Course Substitution Indicator (Course substitutions created on or after July 1, 2007.)

This flag is used to indicate that the course with which it is associated is being used as a Department of Education approved substitute for another course, the code for which is being supplied in a companion data element (Course Number, Substituted). For the time being, this indicator will only be used for course substitutions created on or after July 1, 2007. Course substitutions having course flags in existence prior to July 1, 2007, will continue to use their existing course flags. (Note: Currently can be used for course 1802300 Naval Science 1 (JROTC) and 1802310 Naval Science 2 (JROTC) which may be substituted for Life Management Skills courses 0800300.)

Gifted

The course section is entirely composed of gifted students.

Honors

This is an honors course as designated by state Course Code Directory. To designate an honors course by district definition, use a code reserved for local district use.
