Managing data privacy contracts can be a time-consuming hassle. Luckily, Illinois school districts have access to the SDPC database, a free tool for helping K-12 districts archive data privacy contracts and comply with SOPPA.

But just like any good data system, SDPC is only as organized as its users. That’s why on this week’s Be Connected, we’re jumping back into SDPC and discussing best practices for entering contracts. We’ll also discuss how we can all help clean up inefficiencies and report errors within the database, making it more useful for every district that relies on it.
