Understanding how the state regulatory laws work, as well as the state's policies for ethical behavior and appropriate training for all faculty and employees is essential to a successful occupational education institution. The emphasis on compliance as it relates to aspects such as the necessary separation of duties between departments, which helps avoid conflicts of interest, was new to me, but really well-explained here.

Ethics are very important in any industry to ensure integrity. Also, background check is something that is not supposed to be overlooked especially in the education industry. It's very important to know who you're hiring and who you're enrolling.

I believe it is important to the integrity of our schools to maintain a relationship with our students based on honesty and truth. How do you falsely portray your school and bring students in in on a pretense just for a monetary reward, this is cold and calculating.
