FERPA for Faculty

http://www.academicimpressions.com/webcast/ferpa-faculty

Join us for an online training program that will provide faculty with critical information about FERPA, the federal statute that governs nearly all student records. Beginning with an overview of the FERPA framework, we will address issues that faculty commonly face—often without realizing the implications and risks—including:

• Posting grades
• Emailing with, and about, students
• Writing recommendation letters
• Using online tools and collaborative pedagogies
• Speaking with (helicopter) parents
• Administrators requesting student information

If you are searching for relevant scenarios and practical tips for better understanding how FERPA applies to everyday work of faculty, this online training is right for you.

Bonus Training Material and Quiz

Included in registration is a bonus lesson covering specific nuances of FERPA as it relates to faculty and an accompanying quiz which will provide a chance for you and your team to test your knowledge immediately before or after the webcast. This 20-minute training will cover:

• Taking attendance, posting grades, and other course communication
• The Do’s and Don’ts of identifying students online, in person, and on paper
