I really believed that Emotional Intelligence is more important than IQ.

"A customer-oriented philosophy and Attitude must be embraced by the entire administration, staff and faculty."

It says "If we are modeling, mentoring and monitoring for our students everyday, then we are coaching them toward success."

"An effective and active placement department is an integral part of a school's retention plan."

("The graduation ceremony should be fun and inspiring event for graduates. They worked hard to reach this point.")

"When you have formal mentoring, informal or something in between, it all impacts on retention. You are demonstrating that your school is structured as a caring environment."

I've learned that the more time the student spent during the admission process, the more informed the applicants will be, and the student will have less surprises and stress during the first day at school.

Once the student feels comfortable and connected to the school staff, administrator and Educator it is easy to build trust and  connection.

I like the tips/ things to include in ACADEMIC MEETINS:

1. Classmate Testimonials

2. Classmate Interactions

3. Class Picture

4. Welcome Packets

Building credibility, increasing value, and building departmental connections are important components to an effective orientation.
