Your District Has Access to Free Data Privacy Tools!
Protecting student information is essential. The good news? Every school in Washington State already has access to powerful, no-cost tools to help you do just that!
Through your WSIPC Cooperative, all Washington State schools (public, private, independent, charter, and tribal) receive free Washington State Alliance access to the Student Data Privacy Consortium (SDPC) and Access For Learning Community (A4L).
As part of the Washington State Alliance, you have access to resources including:
- SDPC Resource Registry – Practical, field-tested privacy resources schools and districts can adapt and implement to strengthen student data protections.
- National Data Privacy Agreement (NDPA) – A standardized agreement that simplifies vendor contracting while reinforcing strong privacy expectations.
- National Research Data Privacy Agreement (NRDPA) – A FERPA-aligned agreement designed to support research partnerships while safeguarding student data.
- SIF Certification Program – A program that ensures secure, reliable data sharing between systems using Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF) standards, so data can be entered once and used many times.
This Data Privacy Day and every day, your WSIPC Cooperative is committed to helping you protect student data.
