Information is key

It is extremely important that the student is aware of what is expected from him/her in the legal agreement. This is a binding contract and can't be completed until all the sections are filled and supporting documents are attached as well.  The brochure has to have all the components that are required to have. I have to make sure everything is clear and the students has all the information and tools that the institution offer them. It's great to be prepared for any kind of questions in the interview.

Initial Discussion

What I've learned so far is that there's a lot responsibility to find the right candidates that will fit the needs of the students and institution. Learning the regulations, rules and statues are important to stay in compliance with The Florida Commission for Independent Education.  Continuing education is also part of the job to stay up to date with changes and even to refresh the memory with the admission process.

Answer

Legal Obligation s & Opportunities

My discussion relates to one of the quiz questions  under "Legal Obligations and Opportunities."

For the student who has Asperger's syndrome, there was no information about whether reasonable accommodations were provided to him. A decision was to be made based solely on the information provided.

I know that students with liabilities in higher learning institutions should be held accountable for their actions/ violations. However, I keep asking myself, if reasonable accommodation(s) was provided for the student.

Am I overthinking this?

I am not disputing the correct answer on the quiz because it seemed more logical than the other choices.
