Modernize Compliance. Secure Access. Eliminate Paper Risk
Digitizing student records goes beyond reducing paper—it’s a strategic move toward compliance readiness, data security, and operational efficiency.

eRecordsUSA – Trusted Partner for FERPA-Compliant Student Record Digitization
Preserve Accuracy & Academic Integrity
Physical records are vulnerable to fading, tearing, and filing errors. Our FADGI-compliant scanning captures critical student data—transcripts, IEPs, disciplinary records, and enrollment files—with high-resolution clarity to ensure long-term authenticity and audit trail continuity.
Maximize Office Space & Remote Accessibility
Eliminate filing cabinets and physical storage costs. Digitized archives allow 24/7 access for authorized users—whether it’s a registrar in Fremont, a superintendent in Oakland, or a state auditor—streamlining both daily tasks and compliance reporting.
Enable Instant, Attribute-Level Retrieval
Through advanced OCR and metadata structuring, student records are transformed into searchable digital archives. Locate files instantly by student ID, date of birth, graduation year, or document type, reducing administrative burden and improving responsiveness during audits or transfers.
Mitigate Risk & Ensure Continuity
Natural disasters, accidental disposal, and legacy hardware failures threaten record integrity. Our cloud-optimized, encrypted formats enable safe archival in platforms like Google Workspace for Education, OneDrive, or district SIS platforms, supporting long-term digital resilience and emergency data recovery.
