All student records are protected by the federal privacy law, FERPA (The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974). As a Graduate Teaching Assistant, it is your responsibility to comply with this law.

But what is FERPA anyway? What exactly constitutes a "student record"? In this session, you will learn the FERPA basics as well as best practices for making sure you're in compliance and how to respond to real-life scenarios. This is a must for all teaching assistants!
