I learned about the National Do Not Call (DNC) Registry and how it was established to help consumers avoid unwanted telemarketing calls. 

How social media can be a powerful tool to appeal to students if used within the legal and acceptable boundaries. 

CIE meetings in Florida and how their meetings are open to the public. 

I learned about compliance, truthful advertising , and that for profit schools are highly regulated to ensure they are not taking advantage of students.

The importance of your words and not over exaggerating . Learn about the programs state the facts as listed in the catalog and resources provided by the institution.

I learned how if institutions can have affiliation agreements in order for their credits to transfer seamlesly. But if they don't , students would have to consult with said institutions to see how their credits transfer.

That each institution can have their own marketing plan as long as it follow fair consumer practices. In addition, how all this is regulated to ensure that students know what they are getting from a school.

Having an accurate and complete file on an admitted student is imperative to being compliant.

I've learned of the importance to stay up to date with the rules and regulation of the Florida Commission for Independent Schools. That whet we say is a a big responsibility and that everyone involved in the admissions process must be trained early on and often.
