The

of teaching and learning. The Center

Getting Access to Student Information
FERPA - the Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act - protects the privacy of student education records,
and establishes the right of students to their own
education records. To obtain faculty access to student
information via Pathway, you must first pass an exam
over FERPA regulations. Instructions for taking the
FERPA exam can be found
here.
Getting Access to Campus Data for Grant Proposals
The
UMKC Data Warehouse is responsible
for maintaining the integrity of
institutional data and for collecting,
analyzing, interpreting, and reporting
information about the university to
facilitate effective planning,
decision-making, and continuous
improvement throughout UMKC. You can
request a report or dataset via the
office's website.
