Standardized Data Set

The Standardized Data Set (SDS) is a collection of tools used by CCMH counseling centers to measure various aspects of collegiate mental health during routine clinical practice. Since its original development, the SDS has been revised numerous times to improve and update individual questions/responses and add new components with the goal of balancing the clinical and research needs of the community.

All college or university counseling centers may use any components of the SDS for free and without explicit permission. As a part of CCMH membership, counseling centers are not required to use any specific portion of the SDS. Titanium Schedule, Medicat and Point N Click electronic medical records (EMRs) have integrated the SDS – Client Information tool and CCMH appointment categories as part of their software. Other components of the SDS are only available within Titanium at the present time. The SDS contains six components: Client Information, Provider Information, Clinician Index of Client Concerns (CLICC), Case Closure Form (CCF), Appointment Information, Institution Information.  Please see the most up to date manual below for details.
