Protecting Education Records

Your Responsibilities

As a school official, you have a legal responsibility to protect the confidentiality of education records.

Do Not... Do...
  • Do not permit inspection of a student's education record.
  • Do not disclose personally identifiable information about a student.
  • Do not save education records to a private device.
  • Only access what you need to know. Curiosity is not a need to know.
  • Use university devices and the university network to access education records. Avoid using unsecured WiFi.
  • Secure your desk, cabinets, office and lock your desktop, laptop and portable device screens when not in use.
