Authorities

These records are created, used, retained and managed in accordance with the following authorities:

Retention rationale

The FOI / POP Act (RSBC 1996, c. 165, s. 31) requires that personal information used to make a decision that directly affects an individual must be retained for at least one year.

Retention and filing guidelines

Records are maintained in binders by semester and are arranged alphabetically in the binders by student name.

Copies of completed forms placed on the student case file should be retained in accordance with RRSDA 2004-003, Student Disability Case Files. This RRSDA applies only to records maintained separately from the case files for reasons of administrative convenience or volume.

The CSD should retain the records in-office for the full retention period (CS + 1 yr.) rather than send them to the University Records Centre (URC) for semi-active storage. The CSD is responsible for their destruction at the expiration of their total retention period. The records contain personal information and must be destroyed by confidential shredding; contact Facilities Management to make arrangements.

Status

RRSDA is in force.
