FERPA Training for Admissions and Recruitment Staff
Your admissions and recruitment staff handle student information long before orientation, often in conversations with applicants and families. NavisEd's FERPA Compliance Annual Skills and Knowledge Refresher teaches FERPA principles and how they apply in real situations, so your team knows what counts as an education record, when information may be shared, and how to handle sensitive situations appropriately.
• Built for enrollment teams. The FERPA Compliance Annual Skills and Knowledge Refresher is written for staff who work with applicants, enrolled students and families, not as general campus privacy training.
• Clear answers on PII and education records. Lessons such as "Understanding Personally Identifiable Information (PII)" give staff practical guidance they can use in daily conversations.
• Documentation you can stand behind. Completion tracking and certificates support documentation, accreditation review and accountability.
• Pairs with compliance training. Culture and Compliance adds accurate documentation and responsible data usage that align with accreditation standards and regulatory requirements.
