Federal Student Aid announced new training webinars to help institutions complete Financial Value Transparency and Gainful Employment (FVT/GE) reporting and understand early implementation of the Student Tuition and Transparency System (STATS).
The sessions are free, virtual and open to all institutions. FSA strongly encourages institutions with delinquent submissions to attend. More than 1,700 institutions are delinquent for at least one of the 2024, 2025 or 2026 reporting cycles.
All outstanding data for these cycles are due January 15, 2027. Their original deadlines were September 30, 2025, October 1, 2025 and October 1, 2026, respectively. January 15 is the final deadline, and institutions should submit missing files as soon as possible.
The training opportunities include:

The session will provide an overview of the FVT/GE and STATS and Earnings Accountability regulations, an overview of the reporting requirements, and the processes institutions use to report data. The primary audience for this event includes institutional reporting staff who have not previously submitted FVT/GE data, financial aid administrators, institutional researchers, and anyone seeking a refresher about the data submission process.
