The Student Data Protection Act (2015) requires all LEAs to: 1. Designate a student data manager. The Student Data Manager is a Charter School staff member or individual that a) is the point person for USBE’s Chief Privacy Officer, b) takes the lead on complying with state and federal privacy laws, and c) authorizes and manages the external sharing of student data. 2. Publicly post an LEA Data Governance Plan. The Privacy Technical Assistance Center defines this as “organizational approach to data and information management that is formalized as a set of policies and procedures that encompass the full life cycle of data, from acquisition, to use, to disposal. This includes estab- lishing decision-making authority, policies, procedures, and stan- dards regarding data security and privacy protection, data invento- ries, content and records manage- ment, data quality control, data access, data security and risk management, data sharing and dissemination, as well as ongoing compliance monitoring of all the above-mentioned activities.” 3.

The Student Privacy Act (2017) requires that all employees who have access to student educational records, are trained on data confidentiality. USBE’s Student Data Privacy team has provided resources that LEAs can use for their training found on our website. We have also put together a YouTube playlist with videos that can be very helpful to teachers and administrators. In addition to those resources, we create at least one new data privacy video each month.
