Students walk along a sidewalk at UNCG.

As we begin the new academic year, an updated version of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) training will be available to all UNCG administrators, faculty, and staff in October 2024. FERPA is a federal law that safeguards the privacy of student education records. Annual completion of this online training is mandatory for all UNCG personnel to ensure compliance and protect our students’ privacy.

We listened to your feedback and incorporated many of your suggestions from last year’s training module into this year’s version. UNCG remains committed to providing a learning experience that is both thorough and user-friendly. Training in this area is essential for understanding the types of information we are permitted to disclose, ensuring that we all adhere to federal regulations while fulfilling our responsibilities.

Please make sure to complete the updated training promptly once it becomes available. Thank you for your continued commitment to upholding these important standards.
