The third annual Higher Education Privacy Conference (HEPC) will be held on Thursday, May 8, 2014 at the George Washington University Law School in Washington, DC.

This one-day event focuses on privacy and information management in higher education. The event consists of a combination of speakers and smaller breakout discussion groups to foster interactivity and engagement. Participants have a wide array of backgrounds, from higher education information officers, security officers, privacy officers, compliance officials, and general counsel. Also attending are key individuals from industry, law firms, associations, and government regulators.

This event is invitation-only, but we welcome your reaching out to us if we haven’t invited you. If you have relevant background and experience, we’d be delighted to include you. If there are people at your institution – or elsewhere – that you think we ought to invite, please feel free to suggest their names to us.
