Summary
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) plays a crucial role in protecting consumer privacy and ensuring fair treatment in credit reporting. This presentation will provide an overview of the FCRA, explaining how it impacts individuals as consumers, students, and future professionals. Attendees will learn about their rights under the law, the responsibilities of businesses that handle credit information, and how understanding these protections can help prevent identity theft, errors in credit reporting, and unfair credit practices. Whether you are applying for a loan, seeking employment, or managing a business, knowing your rights under the FCRA is essential.
