We partner with schools in many locations and they are online courses. Is it possible to set up an online group activity for student in the same course to know one another?

Can we introduce some of the career service information in this? So that we can't begin to gather information on the student?

Do you feel that the same topics can be covered effectively in an online presentation?

When building an orientation are there any musts that need to come into play?

Is it beneficial to do some sort of rewards program as an added bonus if students complete with a set period of time?

How do you assign students, and who contacts them? Do you do it by major, category of study, etc? Or do you let the student come to you...

So is there a certain time frame in the semester when you should be looking for contact with the student? Is it closer to mid-way through the semester...?

Our college offers programs that are self-paced, and thus it is harder to raise retention. Is it okay to charge a fee if you take longer than a certain period of time, or will that do more harm than good?

We don't currently do follow up with our students after they graduate. What is the best way to begin doing this with students? Just creating surveys? What if we want to contact older students, is that appropriate if they have not been contacted in a long time?

I know there are alot of programs for writing resumes these days. Is there a way to offer one exclusively for your school to current students?
