Student Rights To Access Records
CCI Training Center respects your rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Learn how you can access your education records, request changes, and how and when CCI may share your information.
What You Can Access
Students have the right to inspect and review their educational records maintained by CCI Training Center. Excluded: Financial records of the student’s parent or guardian are not accessible to students.
How to Request Access
The request must be in writing to the School Director.
Records covered by FERPA will be made available within forty-five (45) days of the written request.
Requesting a Change (Amendment)
If you believe information in your record is inaccurate or misleading, submit a written request to the School Director describing the change you seek and why.
If CCI declines to amend the record:
- You have the right to a formal hearing.
- If the decision stands, you may add a written statement of your viewpoint to the record.
Releasing Your Information to Others
- CCI will not release education records to a third party without your prior written consent on a Release of Private Information form.
- The CCI Training Center will honor requests from former students who may ask CCI to add or delete a previously signed release.
- You may be asked to sign a release allowing CCI to share relevant education-record information with prospective employers.
Parents and Guardians' Access to Information
At the postsecondary level, parents do not have an inherent right to access a student’s education records (including grades and academic progress).
Parents may access records only with:
- The student expresses written authorization, or
- If the student is a dependent as defined by Section 152 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954.
CCI Training Center Access to Student Information (FERPA Exceptions)
The CCI Training Center will disclose information from a student’s record without the written consent of the student to:
- Appropriate CCI Training Center staff members who require access to educational records in order to perform their legitimate educational duties.
- Officials of other schools in which the student seeks or intends to enroll.
- In connection with the student’s application for or receipt of financial aid, and state, federal, and accrediting agencies as required.
If students believe that their FERPA rights have been violated, they may contact the Family Policy Compliance Office of the Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Washington, DC 2002-4605. Additional information is available at the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
Additional information on FERPA is available from the US Department of Education.
