We give them the information; positive, negative and optional, allow them to make the decision to either stay and fail or move on to another program that they are better equiped. I understand that accomadating students for success is not the same as them being successful but if the instructor can see that the student and the career path are not in line when and who tells the student the truth.

Student with disability

I noticed that during class a student could not wright any words correct. After class I called her, and she started crying, and told me that she knew why I was calling her. She decided not to stay in class. I did not know what to do next and passed it to the DOE.

I do believe that the school should say something to the students. just don't lead them into something that they will not be able to do.

accommodations

many will complain about "extra" help for people with disabilities, regardless of the disability and how it is unfair regarding a perceptive "grade increase" however I try to focus my students on being competitive with themselves, not anyone else.

Separation of duties

In our company we have many departments that support our schools. The processing of financial aid is not handled at the school level, the processing is taken care of in our home office. in our home office we have separate departments that are assigned various duties. We have a financial aid office,a business office, accounting department and an operations department that all serve to handle student financial aid and tuition accounts.

Physical disabilities

How is it legal to have a multiple level facility without an elevator? How would the law protect someone that was permanantly in a wheelchair and could not access classes located somewhere other than the ground floor?

CM 270 course comments

Having just finished the online compliance course, I must say that I appreciate COMTA's time and energy for organizing the course. There is such a great deal of information to absorb and understand, and now the action begins.
