I learned the importance of the recruitment/admissions job at a higher learning institutions in Florida. I am also aware now that there are very specific set of rules and behaviors that need to be followed, and a permanent learning process to stay informed about changes. It is a lifelong process.

I learned that agents representing one or more noncertified accredited postsecondary schools must register with the council prior to soliciting in Virginia, also
Pay an annual fee of $300 per school represented

I've learned that the CAN-SPAM Act doesn't apply just to bulk email. It covers all "commercial messages," Also that Each separate email in violation of the CAN-SPAM Act is subject to penalties of up to $42,530

A federal law that protects the privacy of student educational records.

Knowledge is great but having a great attitude and approachable verbiage will help you express what you know and what you think you don't know.  Is this a great way to attract students?

Learning about the appropriate response for the book vendor who stated that our school was "the best" was interesting.  Was anyone else surprised by that?

I appreciate learning the ways the different reporting requirements compare and contrast with each other. Sexual violence is so under reported anyways, I appreciate the annual reports required of colleges.

I have learnt the Importance of acknowledging students with disabilities, and how to work with them to assist them in achieving favorable outcomes.

Great information, students will go to social media when unhappy. 

Its amazing how much an admission representatives know, not only about a particular program but the triad as well. I have heard some of the representatives speak with prospective students, about the program I teach (dental assisting) and they do a fantastic job!   

I believe that an instructor can not only learn from other instructors, but from student as well. When you have done your very best teach someone, listen and watch your student more closely. They can be very creative, even though you may have taught the skill, and the student didn't perform it just like your demonstration, the same result was achieved. (Doctors aren't all the same either). Other classmates can learn as well. 

good review

I would love to see how the admissions process works start to finish. There have been times when I interviewed a potential nursing student and did not think they would be a good candidate for the program, but they were admitted anyway. Does anyone have any insight into how thew process works?

In terms of building trust, my department carries a very high level of integrity in safeguarding private information.

Documentation is so important for all students. Making sure everyone understands what is and is not appropriate documentation will garner consistancy through the entire acadenic experience.

It's important to understand the policy and the compliance while working for an University. Workers should follow regulations and also focus on using correct verbiage in their roles. 

I learned that any indivudal who functions as a recruiter, admissions representative, director, admissions agent, is required to comlete the training. 

It is essential that the enrollment provides the necessary resources to students during their time. Having orientation, career services, and counseling available to students can be instrumental in their success once enrolled.

Documentation is vital in the process of enrollment for all students no matter if they interview and don't attend or if they decide to enroll. Making sure everyone is on the same page of documentation and where to keep said documentation will make sure we stay organized and consistent through the entire enrollment experience.

Working in enrollment it is very important to make sure we are up to date on the policies and regulation affecting our roles in the University, the students we serve, and the overall world of education admissions. This course reminded me of policies I already knew as all as refreshed me on the rules and definitions of our field.
