Beta Release of Scientific Use Data from NEPS Starting Cohort 6

9/15/2011

We are pleased to announce the first release of NEPS data. This release represents a beta version of scientific use data from Starting Cohort 6 - Adult Education and Lifelong Learning - which is scheduled for official release in autumn 2011. All researchers from the scientific community are invited to test these data extensively. We wish to emphasize that these data are made available to the scientific community less than 12 months after the end of fieldwork, reflecting the NEPS‘s goal of releasing all data as soon as possible. This beta release is a service to all researchers interested in working with the NEPS data. In addition, we expect valuable feedback from beta users that will help us to further improve the quality of the scientific use file for the official release. Note that the process of data editing is not yet complete.
