FERPA Compliant Document Scanning Services

In today’s digital age, ensuring the privacy and security of student education records is more critical than ever. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) mandates strict guidelines for protecting this sensitive information, making compliance essential for schools and educational institutions. With PROSCAN®’s FERPA-compliant document scanning services, you can securely digitize records, streamline administrative workflows, and safeguard student data—all while meeting federal regulations.

Benefits of FERPA-Compliant Document Scanning

FERPA grants parents and eligible students specific rights over education records, requiring schools to protect this information from unauthorized access. Non-compliance can result in severe penalties, including the loss of federal funding. Digitizing paper records ensures proper handling of sensitive student data, minimizing risks and improving accessibility.
