Overview
The Arts Education Partnership (AEP) is a national coalition of more than 100 arts, education, business, philanthropic, and government organizations that demonstrate and promote the essential role of the arts in the learning and development of every child. Housed within the Council of Chief State School Officers, the organization is highly valued for its leadership and its major contributions to the field in arts education research. In 2012, AEP launched ArtsEdSearch, the nation’s first online research clearinghouse focused entirely on student learning and educator professional development in and through the arts. Continued support for the project’s ongoing development would expand, enhance, and sustain this important resource.

for support of the Learning Registry
The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) is a membership association that serves the heads of state departments of elementary and secondary education. CCSSO would help provide support for Learning Registry - known as "the card catalog for digital resources" - focusing on working on the governance, maintenance, and future upgrades of Learning Registry with guidance and technical support from its members, and other entities such as its partners, the U.S. Department of Education, and other people and groups interested in Open Education Resources (OER). This work is expected to advance the OER program's strategic goal of supporting a robust technical and institutional infrastructure for the broader OER stakeholder community.
