Keeping up with information

Constantly checking new rules or regulations is very important in doing our job correctly. I enjoyed learning more about the Resource Notebook and how it can help you organize and maintain this information. Does anyone have any other creative ideas on how they stay up to date with managing all of the information we need to know to be successful and stay ethical?

Learning Disability

Not easy to recognize, if you have a large class. Any thoughts?

ACICS specific criteria for the Academics

Specifically what to do to provide proof of "Learning Outcome." Or specifics of Self-Study and CEP for each department.

Non-Monetary motivational strategies

We don't have a program for that at this time, but we do receive a positive feed back from the school of our good efforts.

Catalog Information

I refer frequently to S.A.P.'s "Satisfactory Academic Progress" Policy. First I review the performance standard required by the school, as well as attendance. Then show the scheduled hours when the continuing reviews will occur, as well as the Determination of Progress that will reflect on the financial aid that could be affected during this time.

Exit counseling

We review and hand out the exit guide as well as review payment plans.

Elisiting New Referrals

I would offer the students our information and cards, giving them our number to have them contact us, then with their permission contact the prospect.

Create audits

If a company does not have an audit system in place what is the best way to get everyone involved and consistant with it?

Rita Palasek

compliance course

Good course! Used some motivational techniques such as "Best in Class" certificates for the student with the highest grade, and class participation. This piece of paper they can include in their portfolios, and can present when interviewing for a job.

Christopher Holloway

Online Training

As far as online training goes, this was an extremely efficient and effective program. The information provided was clear and accurate. I did enjoy the posts, as they gave me a chance to see what other people were thinking. I was also glad to see that instructors as well as admissions representatives take the course. I must admit, however, the quizzing was a bit worrisome.

Careful

You have to be very mindful of the law--HIPPA and FERPA especially. Sharing information even with parents at times is illegal if the student opts not to grant them access.

Accomodating a Learning Disability

My student had a learning disability. Functionally, she had difficulty in choosing words to speak and difficulty correctly spelling the term. She knew the term. During office hours, I spent time with her to review the concepts/definition and place them on flash cards. I identified early that Repetitiveness was key to her exam success. I also noted on the first exam that she was spelling words the way she spoke them. I changed the format of the exam to Multiple Choice for all students, without changing the integrity of the test. After taking this course, I am curious if I confused success with access.

Cindy Williams

My Role as Instructor

As the instructor, my students share very personal issues with me. Many of the information shared is directly involved with their disability. Most of these students want to be treated like everyone else is treated. Narcolepsy was experienced by one of my Math students. She was a very bright student, but was heavily medicated to keep her awake. The medicine corrected the issue of falling asleep randomly. However, the opposite effect of the medication was making her very agitated and nervous during class. She cannot not take the message. As an instructor, what is the best advice to give this student? I can only share my observations with the student.

cm 101 Internal Audits

Hi, I just finished the CM101 course on creating and conducting internal audits. I'm really very happy with such concrete instruction on how to do something that sounds so completely foreign and potentially nerve wracking. I'm quite looking forward to putting the tools I've learned about into place and I really appreciate such a concise class and materials. Thanks!

Accomodation for ADA : How does Instructor Know?

In both situations with two students with the need for accomodation, I was not aware that disabilities existed. The first few weeks of school they communicated their situation to me. Currently,our school does not have a Disability Services Office. On the first day of class, I also ask the student to let me know if they have any special circumstances that they would like to share with me privately. I try to make the invitation very generic, including transportation issues etc, as not to embarrass the student. Unfortunately, the students with disabilities assumes they will be treated differently by professor or fellow students. As a result, they are hesitant to share information willingly.
