FERPA Training
The University of North Georgia receives funding from programs administered by the U.S. Secretary of Education, and therefore, must comply with the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
UNG employees are legally responsible for protecting the confidentiality of our students' education records.
In response to our role as "custodian" of students' records, all UNG employees must complete the following as a requirement of their employment at UNG:
- Review the FERPA tutorial.
- Answer the quiz questions.
- Submit the confidentiality agreement.
Instructions for the FERPA tutorial are on the "Instructions" tab on this page.
- Log into Percipio using your network credentials for the Single Sign-On Portal, and your 2-factor authentication as set up for OneUSG. Student Workers should use their Student Worker network credentials not their Student credentials.
- Launch the FERPA Course on your homepage, or under your assigned Learning Plan along the top menu bar.
- You will be required to watch the FERPA Policy video, complete a quiz, and complete a compliance agreement. Notice of completion will be sent to HR.
