I just reached a point in my compliance training that gives "State Nursing Boards" as examples of programmatic accreditation.  My understanding is these are not accreditors.  Programmatic accreditors would be organizations such as Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education or Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing.  A nursing program in a particular state must be a board-approved program for that state in order to operate, but may not be programmatically accredited.

Over the years I have learned that some best practices in Admissions are:

. Have a thorough understanding of the programs, admissions requirements, deadlines, and campus culture

. Establish rapport with prospective students and their families. Listen actively to their needs, answer their questions, and offer personalized guidance throughout the     admissions process.

.  Use clear, concise, and professional language in all communications

. Keep track of applications, follow-up tasks, deadlines, and important dates

. Represent your institution with professionalism and enthusiasm

Being an instructor in the medical field (every one, I think!),  it is my desire with utmost priority to serve my students.

Welcome them and give them encouragement, guidance, and the most accurate training, for them to be of service 

to their patients as well as to the community.

Compliance is very important for the teachers so the students receive everything they need to be successful. Being a good role model and getting close to students will help them get the best education. I will continue to mentor students and assist them in every way that I can so they can become avid learners and successful in their career choice.

Compliance is very important to all involved with our institution.

Educational practices must meet set standards. This  helps schools and educators focus on their primary mission which is delivering quality education while maintaining ethical standards and accountability.  It is our responsibility to protect students educational records, personal information and financial information. 

All students must be given opportunity of an action plan to successfully pass their courses.

Engage students in their learning and fostering team in developing study habits.

When we transparecny, I think of honesty which in turn fosters trust. These three pilars allow us to protect our students' right to know and to learn.

If one acts in benefits and errors on behalf of the student, all else will eventually work its way out

Training was very informative, and provided the material we all need to remain compliant

Understanding the schools mission statements and culture are extremely important to the success of of the faculty and staff as much as it is for the students. I have learned to keep abreast of changes so I can represent them appropriately to the students in my class.

Creating action plan

This was my most challenging course yet! And I love a good challenge. There are so many details, intricacies and exceptions to FERPA, that this course is one that I will certainly come back to review my notes on a regular basis. It will also be a good idea to look for any new changes to FERPA policies on an annual basis. 

If you do not know something ask and not assume you know. Treat each student with respect.

Help each student and provide great customer service. If you stay in compliance you will be successful. 

Every institution must make clear to the future student of the rights they have  as students, and the the things that can be disclosed  or not disclosed regardless on who is asking information in regards to  student status grades etc.

I can't say it any plainer than we are in the age of information and technology.  Please stop acting as if everything you do online, in person, etc is a secret. Someone or something is always watching everywhere. 

My best advice for people who are starting out as a new parent(s).. Please, please know this; from zero to five years of age are the most critical years of a child's life when it comes to learning. Do not let your children become addicted to technology. Do not let the tablets and cell phones become your child's babysitter.  I have been… >>>

With students that have disabilities there can always be a happy outcome for all. Upon notification of the disability I will have the conversation with the student about their needs. Get a clear understanding of the learners challenges. I will then suggest that they consult them to the proper school officials that will confirm if the accommodations will be approved.
