course requirement

I am glad this was a requirement to do this course. It was informative in many areas, and a refresher in many others.  I am looking forward to sharing what I have learned to my co-workers as well and learning all the facets of their job as well.

Agent Course

I thouroghly enjoyed taking the course. The different sections were easy to follow and I learned many new things from each section. I think the best thing I will take from this course is to be better organized with my information. I enjoyed participating in the forums and reading other suggestions on how they do things.

Training

The training that I went through today was influential and meaningful. I recently was hired on as an Admissions Representative, and I feel that this training has already prepared me for this position. It gave me a grasp on the questions and the preparation of information that I need to be educated on when dealing with a new prospective student. The Resource Notebook is a vital resource for agents and admissions representatives. Having the Resource Notebook on hand with all the knowledge and sources about your institution is a great tool. I know this resource will help me through this process. This training has also brought to… >>>

Clear and accurate picture

Providing detailed and accurate information is the key to success for the agent and the student.  Going to school in many ways represents a life change.  It is truly the responsibilty of the agent to create a clear image of the expectations, requirements, tools to be used, and potential benefits of attending my school.  I have found that the beter the picture is that you create in a potential students head, the better chance of success for both the agent and more importantly the student.  There are many exciting and important things to share with a potential student

Doing The Right Thing!

This is a simple process, but it is not always easy.  You see some that need help, and you really want to do something.  Then you also see those that resemble the reasoning that some of these regulations were put into place.  Some people utilize the system to make it work, and then there are those that try to work the system to avoid doing any work at all.  The simple answer is to just treat everyone equally by the same set of standards,  but the hard part is dealing with people who do not equally possess any set of… >>>

Good to know

No matter how many times I go through this training, I always find new information that I can apply to my job as an admissions representative. It is important to always stay on top of your own development in this industry. Things are always changing and it is important to kow when these changes happen. Thanks!

You can never take this too many times

When I first came to YTI, I was so invloved with learning A to Z that taking the compliance course was burdensome, but needed. This time around, I could really appreciate why we are doing this and why it is so important to propsective and current students, our employees and the overall health of our company

 

Moving Forward...

After the course, I feel a lot more confident talking with students about the big picture.

Review

This was a nice overview of infomation that I am familiar with.  I thought it was also interesting to learn new things about finanical aid and Title IV that I was not aware of.  I also find the info quite interesting to take into my own daily activities as well.  The Can-Spam act has always played with my understanding a bit, it is always nice to get a review on it, so that as a consumer I can use it as well.

Compliance Training

This course was very informative.  Items that one might think are harmless to perform or speak of can be very damaging.  I learned a lot from the course and will go back and reference the web sources and other information provided.

Bright Lines

It is good to have trainings and refreshers in the "bright line" parameters that are pertinent to our speech and actions.  Most of us do what we do because we know that what we do is help people change their life's course through career training.  It is involves regular interactions with individuals.  As those relationships develop it is important that we take care not to let familiarity with the person, and the more relaxed conversation that is a bi-product of that familiarity, ever lead to misinformation or unintentional misrepresentation.  We do not need to let it have a chilling effect… >>>

Training

I printed out everything from this training and am going to continuously going to review at least once a week so that I know it from front to back.  It is amazing what I didn't know and now do. 

review is good!

This was very intersting to do. Compliance is always in the back of the mind, to bring it to the fore front for review was a positive.

Transparent Feedback

I gained a better understanding of FERPA and transparency.  Coming from healthcare I learned how FERPA and HIPAA correlate to one another.  The rules and regulations are there to be followed.  The mission and values of the institution were established based on the rules and regulations.  It becomes up to the administration of the institution to develop a culture of integrity so that employees will not waiver into grey areas that could lead to negative and potentially hazardess consequences.

Changes

I feel this course has helped me so I know exactly what I shoud say to a student or prospective student.  They are in charge of their future and I don't want to say anything misleading.  The course has made me ask questions that I normally may have not asked.

Learning interests

Taking this compliance course has helped me to understand the educational process. I am a new instructor and I am interested in learning all I can to become a great instructor. In order to do that I think it is important to learn all the rules and regulations.

How Things Have Changed - For the Better

Taking this compliance course was really helpful. I was in the Admissions Field 5 years ago and now back in Admissions department after working in the Academic field of Advising. I am very great full how as to how much the rules and regulations have changed for the betterment of our business and the transparencies for students.

Confidence

This course helped me prioritize what needs to be known, provided and required. I now have a better "Resource Notebook" that contains all necessary tools and the resources to find or keep myself up to date. Therefore, I feel more confident, that I have all the knowledge and the tools when enrolling a student.

Different

I can say I was not sure what to expect but it was helpful and everyone needs to know what is going on. There are many changes that are going on and this course has helped me.

First impressions

I was not sure what to expect from this training. I was a little confused at first because it seemed to be oriented towards a recruiter and not a teacher. As the class went on I was able to see the connection.
