Our fully-assembled FERPA training modules are ready for use off the shelf. They can readily be customized, and anything can be added or removed.

Our short courses can each stand alone or be combined like Lego pieces. They can be used as a library of quick and engaging training for periodic or ongoing awareness. They can be added into longer training modules or fused together in any combination. In addition to the courses below, use the tabs toward the top of this page to see other privacy and data security training topics, as many of them are relevant for schools.

TeachPrivacy was founded by Professor Daniel J. Solove, the leading expert on privacy and data security law. He is deeply involved in the creation of all training programs because he believes that training works best when made by subject-matter experts and by people with extensive teaching experience.

According to Professor Solove: "Great training isn’t about slickness or tricks. It is about teaching. The goal is to make people understand, care, and remember. Great training is made with genuine passion – to make people love training, it must be made with love. Excellent substance is essential. The material must be explained clearly, understandably, and concretely. The content must be short and to the point – and it must be engaging. Slickness and gimmicks can’t compensate for lackluster substance."

TeachPrivacy provides privacy awareness training, information security awareness training, phishing training, HIPAA training, FERPA training, PCI training, as well as training on many other privacy and security topics.

Professor Solove is a law professor at George Washington University Law School. He has taught privacy and data security law since 2000, has published more than 10 books and more than 50 articles, including the leading textbook on information privacy law and a guidebook on the subject. His LinkedIn blog has more than 1 million followers. Click here for more information about Professor Solove.
