Career Placement

It is important to help graduates with their resumes, letters, etc for interviews. A lot of candidates have a degree or a diploma but lack a good personal presentation. The placement departments need to assist in this area as well. Some institutions assist in career placement where there are institutions that do not. It does not make institutions that do not provided career placement any less valuable to the student. Many students currently have employment or careers and are looking to enhance their education for advancement purposes only.

Enrollment Agreement

I think it would be beneficial to the students to advice on every step of the enrollment. They should be informed and explained every paper that they are reading and signing. I also agree that the enrollment agreement along with the catalog constitutes the contract between the student and the school.

The resource notebook

I am thinking that every person required to take this course should have one. None the less it should be standardized for the entire school. For example, a director is required to take this training but if there is a question regarding admissions, it would be better if they had their own copy rather than have to take it to Admissions. This would ensure that the information is correct.

Maintaining Electronic Copies

The very nature of our business is to bring technology to the work place. One of the ways we do this is to educate students on how to move away from paper and store documents in databases. Is is possible and realistic to have the forms maintained in a database instead of maintaining filing cabinets full of papers?

Resource Notebook

As I go through this program, I am learning the different items which should be included in the resource notebook. So far, I've discovered the Section 6E rules should be included in addition to the Organizational Chart.

New Rules , Will you be requiring existing schools to comply?

New Rules , Will you be requiring existing schools to comply? I have noticed with other schools they are not, due to operating for some years. There must be a way to regulate them better. Starting a new program and having to comply with the rules and regulation's is the right way and will prove to have a better education process for the students that enroll. This is very serious. Thank you for this wealth of knowledge and hard work will pay off the long run.

I felt that I had a pretty good knowlegde of the information about the Florida Rules & Statutes. After having gone through this course (201). I learned that I still had much to learn about these rules & statutes and how they apply to our institution. I am glad that I took this course and I highly recommend it to anyone that is considering opening or working in an educational institution. There is a wealth of knowledge to be gain in taking this course that will help greatly in every aspect of an educational institution's program.
