The Resource Notebook

I found that the concept of keeping a Resource notebook was a key part of not just training, but to the overall functions of the job. Updating this book is also a key part of the job. This is due to the well-announced fact that new information is constantly being obtained and admissions representatives need to be kept up-to-date with the institute changes.

Credits

It is not up to admissions representative discretion if a student life experience could be used as school credits. It is not guaranteed all credits from any institutions can be transferrable to our institution.

Resource Book

For me, as a new admissions representative, "creating" , not just having a resource book is invaluable. By me printing all the major regulations that refer to my job, I will be able to comply with all the regulations. As I learn more information I will add more to my book.

Programs

As admission representative we must know all the programs that are being offered at our institution. We must know what the requirements are for all the programs.

Transfer Credits

I feel that this training was very informative in regards to transferring credits. Each institution has it's own policy regarging transfer credit. It's very important for Admission Represtative to know what their institution requires and if their is a limit

Rules and Regulations

As admission representative we need to know more about the Statutes expecially the Florida Statutes Licensure of Institutions and the Fair Consumer Practice.

Resource notebook

The resource notebook is very important. It is a great tool and guide that an admissions representative can always go back to if they are not sure about a procedure/ policy.

Just meeting the requirements or taking it a step further...

Is it fair to your students to meet the requirements of CIE or should you push further? I feel that each school should be required to submit to the CIE the current pass rate from the organization that administers the state or national test that determines whether the student is educated enough to obtain a license from the state. Anyone can pass a test administered by a school and all tests can be made to pass by those schools. Your thoughts...

Advertisment

I agree - word of mouth referrals are a large part of our prospective students, BUT this is only true when the students and grads of our programs are HAPPY with the quality of their program / experience. So, continued student support is also so important to create future pospects.

Student Loans

By listening to a prospective student, you can almost describe a personality, you can recognize if that person has fears, worries, indecision, confusion, happiness, responsibility, even courage to adhere any adversity that might come in the way in order to achieve the goal. Excellent communication skills are a must when it comes to admissions.

Meetings

Learning is a daily expirience. Everyday we learn something new. Staff meeting is very important to keep employees posted on all new topics that might arise.
