Follow on Google News | SDPC represented at FTC Future of COPPA WorkshopBy: Access 4 Learning Community Steve urged the FTC to consider more closely aligning any COPPA rewrites with FERPA, specifically calling attention to the School Official exception and the data protection requirements included there. "Any updates to COPPA should align to and leverage the FERPA protections already in place and clearly establish realistic operational requirements placed upon schools while not hindering schools' ability to utilize innovative tools to support teaching and learning in today's classrooms", said Steve during the closing statements of the panel. The FTC is still soliciting public comment on the COPPA Rule until October 23, 2019. All SDPC members are encouraged to submit comments.
