FERPA Compliance Guide

The FERPA Compliance Guide refers to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a U.S. law that protects students' educational records from unauthorized access. It ensures that students and their parents have the right to view, correct, and control the sharing of their personal educational information. Schools must follow specific guidelines to keep this data confidential and only share it with authorized individuals. Compliance helps safeguard students' privacy and promotes trust in educational institutions by ensuring sensitive information is handled appropriately.
