FERPA protege la privacidad de los registros educativos del estudiante, y esas protecciones aplican independientemente de si el estudiante también es empleado de la institución educativa.
Comment on Luis Arturo Joachin's post: Si un estudiante es también un empleado (por ejemplo, asistente de profesor, trabajador en la biblioteca, o en áreas administrativas), los registros educativos relacionados con su estatus como estudiante siguen estando protegidos bajo FERPA.
Sin embargo, la información relacionada con su empleo (como nómina, evaluaciones laborales, etc.) no está cubierta por FERPA, sino por otras leyes y políticas de privacidad laboral.
ERPA protects the student, and those rules apply even if the student is an employee.
We should always make sure student records are safe and secure.
Make sure to keep student records in a secure area
FERPA protects student records and guides us on the process to get them and how to keep them private.

I found the part about the hiring practices interesting and funny. One day, if we are together chatting, I will tell you why. Just know that sometimes the hiring practices are taken too literally...
Records should be kept in a locked cabinet and care should be taken when hiring employees that can be trusted with those records.
Best Hiring practice is background checks on new employees.
Students must allow a school 45 days to comply with requests to review their records. There may redactions to their record for items like parental financial records, confidential letters and recommendation that the student waived their right to inspection, and educational records containing information about more than one student. Applying students are not covered by FERPA. Former students are covered, but schools are not obligated to honor nondisclosure of Directory Information. Alumni records are not covered unless they are subsequent educational records.
Students who work at an institution where they are also receiving education must still go through the correct channels and request access to view their own records.
I mainly learned how requests and what records can be released and when for currently enrolled students, deceased students, alumni and enrolled students who are also employees.
It was a great section on regulations and privilege to access record if the student is also an employee.
I’ve learned that FERPA is designed to protect the privacy of students’ educational records. It establishes certain rights for students and sets specific guidelines for how schools and institutions must handle and disclose student information.
I learned about the policies and procedures pertaining to decreased students.
FERPA helps us as an institution understand and apply the rules and regulations when it comes to student requests.
FERPA allows students to inspect and review their educational records, but does not allow institutions to restrict access to records solely because of unpaid fees. Institutions may charge a fee for copies of records, but access cannot be completely restricted because of unpaid fees. This ensures that students' rights to access their records are respected while reasonable administrative fees are in place.
FERPA is an important aspect in education and needs to be fully enforced for all students to feel safe and protected.
FERPA has many different aspects to it and it is important for everyone that works with students to understand what can and cannot be shared and to whom.
