In this session, Ryan Cloutier, Principal Security Architect, Sourcewell Technology, will review the relevant components of the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA), also commonly known as Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13. Participants will learn how data is classified under MGDPA, what is considered public vs. private data, and what measures schools need to have in place in order to be in compliance. Schools are considered local units of government under MGDPA, so this session is important for any administrator or other school staff that is concerned with data privacy and policies for their school.
