If an instructor is teaching online and wants to record the class, a release would be needed to record students responding.  Students' participation may prevent the instructor in posting or showing the video. 

Training new employees is a must, regarding FERPA.  No records should be accessed unless there is a need to do so to do your job.  FERPA does not cover disposing of records, but shredding is best. 

Students need to understand that they can opt-out of directory listings and if they do than their name should be removed. 

A school official is defined by the institution and not everyone needs to have access to student records.  Schools have the opportunity to change their FERPA guidelines if a complaint is filed.
