Respecting Student Privacy: Parents of USask students
We understand that parents are often eager to support their child's educational journey. However, it's important to note that privacy laws, specifically the Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (LA FOIP) in Saskatchewan, protect the privacy rights of USask students. We kindly request that parents do not attend their child's Career Services appointments without the student's consent.LA FOIP safeguards your child's personal information and privacy. As such, universities are generally not permitted to disclose personal information about a student to parents without the student's consent, no matter their age.Exceptions: LA FOIP allows disclosure without consent when there are genuine concerns for the student's safety or well-being.

We encourage open and supportive communication between parents and students. If you're interested in your child's career coaching progress, we recommend discussing it with them and respecting their privacy choices. This empowers students to make decisions about their educational and career paths while ensuring that their privacy rights are upheld.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in respecting your child's privacy during their university journey.
