Public

Ask a question from your peers to help you in your professional work. Seek different points of view on a topic that interests you. Start a thought-provoking conversation about a hot, current topic. Encourage your peers to join you in the discussion, and feel free to facilitate the discussion. As a community of educators, all members of the Career Ed Lounge are empowered to act as a discussion facilitator to help us all learn from each other.

Unstanding the Institution

For me the best way to understand our institution is to basicly job shadow different aspects of MJCC. Ask questions, gain knowledge of every part of the educationl process so that we may better communitate with our potential students.

Utilizing student services

As admissions representatives, it is important to inform your prospective and current students about the student services department and what they offer. On average, students who become more involved in the school with activities, extracurriculars, community service, etc tend to be more successful.

Hard Sell - Easy Sell

As a new Rep I believe some of the potential students that seem hard to sell could be easy and some of the easiest sells will be hard.

Getting aquainted

As a new Rep, other than reviewing all the new information, what is the best way of getting aquainted with all the new information.

Accreditation

Why is it not required to be accredited per the board?

Library / Resource Center

How come this is not a requirement for ALL schools? Is there some regulation that needs to be done, that prevents it from being an all-around requirement?

Discussing Tuition

I realize that as an 'agent', we are not the primary source for the tuition/FA information. However, when we are asked questions, how do we address the ones we are not supposed to answer? Do we say "let me get somebody for you", "I'm not sure" - I don't want to lose the confidence of the student, by appearing less-than-knowledgeable, though I know I'm not supposed to discuss certain things.

Transfer of credit

I have been trained to say that transfer credits will be determined based on the receiving school but that I should direct them towards the registrar before saying anything else. Thoughts?

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT ALL RAIDO AND TV ADDS BE REGULATED BY THE STATE IN WHICH THE INSTITUTION IS LOCATED?

A good way to keep up

I am new to this role and I was offered some great advice that I thought others could benefit from. I was struggling with how to learn each of the programs in order to better serve the students and someone on my team told me that a great way to sort everything out is to look at one program offered each week and learn as much as possible about that course in that week. That way you can slowly build a solid foundation of knowledge.

Resource Notebook

I have the laws given in this module saved to my computer, but I was wondering if anyone has all their information on a computer instead of in an actual paper resource book? I have notifications set up in my computer to let me know when forms, policies, references, etc. are changed within our system. Is there a benefit to this or would it still be reccommended to establish a notebook?

Transfer of Credits

Each school is required to have a policy regarding the transferability of credits. It is important to locate the transfer policies for your institution, read and print them, and place them in your Resource Notebook. Some schools accept transfer credits from other institutions and some do not.

Student Services

Student services are often as important as the educational programs. Student services prepare students to be successful and provide assistance throughout the student's experience at your school. Common student services are: Orientation, academic assistance, housing, placement and career services, library, graduation, and exit interviews.

Keeping Your Resource Notebook Up to Date

There are a few ways to use your notebook and keep it up to date. You can wait for your supervisor to give you information. You can also seek out the information from the other staff members. You can ask questions. You must do whatever it takes to ensure you have the most current and accurate information plus the forms that you need to complete the admissions process.

Tuition Assistance

An agent needs to be informed about all tuition assistance options. There may be other school personnel who provide detailed financial aid information. The agent needs to know which questions to answer and which to refer to others.
