I appreciate this section as it aligns with my own ethics around honesty. I like the examples given of an honest and misleading statement to potential students. I personally was reminded to be careful with my words and how I can still guide a student with optimism and realistic expectations. I plan to continue to learn all of the true information about where I work so that my words always align with honesty.
There was a great deal of information in this section. Among all it is imperative to be transparent and within compliant for the success of the students, as well a the college. I found it very informative to learn about funding per credit hours. I also leanred about contacting someone that is on the DNC registry.
It is very important to follow all the rules and regulations when working with students in the Post Secondary School. Alignment of duties within compliant standards can benefit all by ensuring stability and longevity of the school and student eligibility to participate in federal funding programs.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) opened the National Do Not Call (DNC) have implemented that after a person has registered for services, they must stop communication attempts after 31 days. This information was relevant to me, as a student and alumni, because students get thousands of advertisement calls, and are unaware of how they can prevent the calls. Being bombarded by these calls also make it difficult to realize legit calls from scams, and can possibly get emotionally draining. I would definitely utilize this service for myself and inform my students of this tip.
I really enjoyed this segment. I learned alot about coursework eligability, and how credit hours are used inregard to funding. I also waseducated on the aspects and resolutions of the Do Not Call rules. Integity and being transparent are very important in dealing witheveryone.
My understanding from this section is to follow all rules and compliance standards set by the instituion especially when it comes to students and keeping the institution open. Staying honest and not lying or embellishing information is vital to the success of a college/university.
There was alot of important information in this segment! It is important to be honest and uphold federal and state standards by not misrepresenting an institution to others, including prospective students, faculty, and staff. There are fines associated with misrepresentation. Misrepresentation can be done in person, through email, through telephone calls, etc. If a student requests not be be called or to receive emails, it is important to follow their wishes.
There are many legal aspects when working with Post Secondary School. I learned that following all rules and compliance standards are very important when it comes to our students and keeping our school operable. No matter how much information you are familiar with in your position do not give out misleading inforomation to anyone. If you don't know ask so that the corrected information can be given. Keeping up with dates that may change multiples such as Title IV participating institutions is important and must demostrate compliance with the U.S. Department of Education regulations. There is a lot more to learn and comprehend.
Thank you
