College of Education students and faculty members whose names were found in an unsecure database last month are being notified this week that some of their information may have been accessible to the public.

This database was used in connection with the College of Education students’ E-Folio software application, which captured students’ mastery of State of Florida and national teacher education standards through the tracking of grades, test scores, completed assignments and other data elements.
