How does your school stay current?

I'm surious as to what your school is doing to keep you up on what is happening with trends, the industry and marketing? Do you hold weekly/monthly meetings?

Your Schools Marketing Approach

I was curious as to how well each of you know what is going on with regards to marketing for your school? Do you have campus meeting to go over it? We have reports and meet monthly to go over what we are doing and how er go about advertising.

Sounding robotic

If you use the same words and phrases with every prospective student, it takes away from your relationship. You have to relate with each one and every student is different.

David Rucker

Financial aid and admissions should never overlap

There too many guidelines and regulations in the FA process to expect Admissions reps to learn along with admissions guideline in my opinion.

David Rucker

Learning everyday

I have been in admissions for a little over a year now and I realize that no matter how long you've been doing this, you will continue to learn something new everyday. This training has open my eyes to the organization side of a admissions rep.

David Rucker

Staying up to date with new regulations

I feel they should have more of these trainings to inform admissions reps of the changes in the industry, especially when they change so often

Marketing by Admission Representations

Since most institution have deferent forms of marketing plans. can an admission representative have a personal marketing plan that they can generate personal leads.

Tesfa Miller

why is it so important to use words and terms predetermine by fla rule

Shouldnâ€™t any company or institution have the ability to market their business the best way they seem fix, with out a third party putting them in a box. Just has long has that company or institution is being professional ethical with their marketing. My reasoning is that the main purpose of any marking strategy is to attraction as mush people to your business has possible, to give you a competitive advantage. With regulatory bodies, preset rule and statues putting you in a box, marketing wont be able to be creative, deferent.

Small schools may be easier to stay current

Smaller schools usually have fewer programs to keep up with, but are usually updated more frequently, Admissions still need to be up to date with each program.

Workforce Development Board

With the high unemployment in Florida, Workforce Boards are looking for short term programs that can get folks updated with their skills and back to work. But employment is critical following Training. Not an easy task in this economy!

Julio Socorro

Student Services

Having agreat student services department is a great way to add value to your institution. Many admissions staff are not aware of all the services.

Julio Socorro

Admissions paperwork

It is imperative that there be a logical flow in the admissions paperwork process. More than the admissions staff eyes should go on this paperwork before submittal.

Julio Socorro

Required Admissions Training for all admissions staff

I am very interested in this training. It is a good step to educate professionals on the dos and donts of admissions. Furthermore, it provides more institutional responsibility to train.

Thomas Mendenhall

Transfer of Credits, Meetings

It is definately helpful to be informed as to the transfer of credits from one instution to another. I have learned that so many schools only offer a set amount of credit hours unless they have an articulation agreement with another school or program. Meetings with all the institutions departments more frequently is a great idea to have effective communication within the entire organization.

Thomas Mendenhall

Advertisements and Job placement

This is a good review of information I received recently from a FAPSC seminar here in the Orlando, FL area. I appreciate the need for a school to make sure it varifies all its placements and advertisements.
