Child Records - Resolving Duplicates

Audience: Data Specialists

Many children in the Migrant Education Program (MEP) are recruited more than once in different districts and regions throughout California. As result, several Certificates of Eligibility can be created per family, resulting in multiple versions of the same child information within the State’s migratory child database. These versions may not be exactly alike, or the members of a family could change. There are many reasons why a child record could look like a different child or could be a duplicate of an existing child. The “Resolve Duplicates” feature in MSIN was designed to help users determine if similar child records are actually referring to the same child.
