Student Employee Statement of Understanding

Student Employee Statement of Understanding / Family Education Rights and Privacy Act Of 1974**

I understand that by virtue of my employment with Northwest College, I may have access to records which contain private and individually identifiable information, the disclosure of which is prohibited by the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974. I fully understand the intentional disclosure by me of this information to any unauthorized person could subject me to criminal and/or civil penalties imposed by law. I further acknowledge that such willful or unauthorized disclosure also violates Northwest College's privacy policy and constitutes just cause for disciplinary action including immediate termination of my employment whether or not criminal or civil penalties are imposed.

By signing the form, both parties acknowledge that the SUPERVISOR has discussed the importance and implications of this policy with the STUDENT EMPLOYEE.
