On the Privacy Pyramid: A Framework for Privacy Policy and Practice

Each day colleges and universities collect more and more data about students and their activities on campus and online. This data, collected in the SIS, LMS, and a multitude of other campus systems, are an incredible asset to the institution to uncover students' journeys and pathways to success. As institutions begin expanding this digital data footprint through cloud-based solutions, data privacy discussions must evolve to address the implications of the usage of these data. During this session, participants will explore a "privacy pyramid" framework and a real-world institutional experience of making the change from on campus to cloud-based infrastructures and systems.

OUTCOMES: Explore principles of data privacy that drive insights and actions * Identify the impact cloud-based solutions have on data accessibility * Develop a framework for effective data policies
