I believe career development should be an ongoing part of a student's education, not something that starts when they are ready to graduate. Giving students opportunities to explore career paths, develop professional skills, and connect with employers along the way helps build confidence and prepares them for the workforce. Career Services plays an important role in guiding students through that process and helping them understand the opportunities available. Building strong employer relationships and providing consistent support can make a lasting difference in a student's success.

Audits are the key to creating a road map of resolution based on the time frame of measurement. 

I think internal audits play an important role in making sure schools are operating efficiently and following the proper guidelines. They give us an opportunity to catch potential issues before they become bigger problems while ensuring student information and school records are protected. Taking the time to review our processes helps build accountability, maintain trust, and keep everyone working toward the same standards.

This module helped me better understand the responsibilities schools have when it comes to maintaining compliance with regulations involving Admissions, Financial Aid, and Student Privacy. It also reinforced how important it is to have accurate documentation, maintain organized records, and make sure established procedures are being followed.

I've learned that internal audits ensure that compliance. When doing this internal process it will mitigate risk and ensure the proper documentation is happening. It also allows you to identify areas of focus when the risk opportunity is identified.
