We're excited to incorporate our instructors into the orientation presentation. We also plan to facilitate introductions among the new students to foster a strong sense of community and security. Our goal is to ensure students feel supported by the staff in achieving their goals and needs every step of the way.
The idea of having a few instructors presenting their work experience and their knowledge in the specific career the students chose to study will help our students feel secure that their instructors are qualified to teach them, and also the students will realize that there is success in the field that they chose to study. The instructors will also be able to answer questions about the job outlook and give inspiration to the new students.
I learned that making orientation more engaging by involving important staff, teachers, and past students is essential. This will help our students feel confident about their decision for choosing our school.
It's important to share real-life examples of alumni success in our orientation so that new students can feel connected, encouraged, and inspired to continue with the program.
