SIS Access And Security
Definition of a Data Supervisor
An individual within a campus department or office who requests user access to the IUIE or Student Information System
(SIS) and serves as the primary contact or liaison to help define legitimate need and the level of access needed by an employee
(within that department) based upon the employee’s job responsibilities. The Data Supervisor is responsible to keep the Data Manager
informed of changes within the department that require changes to access (i.e. changed job responsibilities, termination of
employment). The Data Supervisor is responsible to provide training for new employees in their unit about confidential student
information and the use and release of student information.
There are several steps that a user needs to accomplish to complete the access process. This tip sheet laundry lists the various
components of the access request process.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with
respect to their education records.
