[Please excuse the cross-posts.] We have heard from many of you that legislative and regulatory compliance is becoming an increasingly important function for IT organizations. EDUCAUSE Policy continues to strengthen our Campus Policy efforts (http://www.educause.edu/policy/campus) to equip institutions to proactively address complex legal and compliance environments for information and communications technology. We recently collaborated with several key higher education associations to produce a one-stop shop of compliance resources for higher education – see announcement below. Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback regarding this new resource. Thanks, Rodney Petersen Managing Director of EDUCAUSE Washington Office From: EDUCAUSE [mailto:educause () educause edu] Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2012 11:10 AM To: Staff Subject: Policy Update: New Compliance Resource If this e-mail message does not display correctly or hyperlinks are missing, please view our mobile version<http://educause.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yMTczNDUyJnA9MSZ1PTEwMDg0OTIwNDUmbGk9MTA0MzUxMzg/index.html>.

Federal regulations touch every facet of college and university operations, from employment law to export controls, from international programs to student affairs, from tax issues to accreditation. Dozens of national higher education associations monitor these regulations and produce valuable resources to help their members achieve compliance. This partnership of 20 national associations, spearheaded by the National Association of College and University Attorneys (NACUA), aggregates compliance news and resources from EDUCAUSE and other participating associations, government agencies, and relevant websites. The Higher Education Compliance Alliance website is designed to be a continuously updated resource for administrators and others on campus seeking to understand their compliance obligations.

CIOs, IT policy administrators, information security officers, and other IT staff who are responsible for developing compliance programs or crafting institutional policies will benefit from this collaboration with college and university attorneys, risk managers, and others who bring unique expertise." -Rodney Petersen<http://educause.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yMTczNDUyJnA9MSZ1PTEwMDg0OTIwNDUmbGk9MTA0MzUxMDE/index.html>, Senior Government Relations Officer, EDUCAUSE and Higher Education Compliance Alliance Steering Committee Member View the list of participating organizations and learn more on the Higher Education Compliance Alliance website<http://educause.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yMTczNDUyJnA9MSZ1PTEwMDg0OTIwNDUmbGk9MTA0MzUxMDA/index.html>.
