The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student educational records. This law applies to any organization that receives funding from the U.S. Department of Education and provides a set of regulations for how student data should be stored, accessed, and used. In procurement, FERPA outlines specific requirements around the collection, sharing, disclosure, and destruction of student information. These requirements are designed to ensure the security and integrity of student data and protect students’ personal information. Moreover, these provisions must be taken into consideration during any procurement process related to student data.
