I love it. It will help to help the school stay in compliance and transparency with the prospective students and the applicable state laws.
The information l learned makes me more knowledgable of the proccess and polices and rules to be able to effectively communicate more accurately to potential students.
I've learned some phrases to avoid saying and just ensuring you are never guessing on any answers you give. Let the student know you aren't positive so you will check at a later time and get back to the student with the correct information. This is important to do to make sure you stay in compliance.
I learned the importance of following updated procedures, proper documentation, and applying compliance standards in all fields.
In completing this module, I have gained an appreciation for how ongoing training serves as the foundation for both institutional integrity and student success. The key takeaways for me are the necessity of maintaining absolute transparency and ensuring that our communications are grounded in accurate, up to date knowledge of policies and regulations.
I intend to apply this by prioritizing realistic expectations for every prospective student I advise. By ensuring that students are fully informed about program requirements, schedules, and institutional policies from the outset, we not only remain compliant with state and federal regulations but also foster a trusting environment that supports the student throughout their academic journey. Ultimately, my goal is to leverage this training to improve my own documentation practices and ensure that every interaction is guided by an unwavering commitment to honesty and ethical recruitment.
Staying informed about admissions, credit transfer policies, and the various programs available at the school is essential. It’s important to be honest with students and not to deceive them in an attempt to make the school appear like the perfect choice for them.
I learned the importance of honesty, accuracy and compliance in education, especially in areas like advertising, enrollment, and fair consumer practices.
It's important to consider ongoing admissions training because this keeps us compliant to rules and processes within the admissions process for educational institutions. The more straightforward and realistic an admissions advisor is for a prospective student who is interested in enrolling in a program, the better it will be. This helps with any expectations the prospective student may have about the classes, programs, schedules, and institution as a whole. Which is very important when considering everything that a student needs to know throughout the admissions and enrollment process.
I learned that it is crucial to learn and keep up with information on admissions, credit transfer and the different programs the school has to offer! You have to be honest to the student and you can not lie to them just to make the school seem like it is the best fit for them.
Honesty is the best policy but you should always think and use commonsnese in order to best help and of course follow the resource book.
I learned the importance of having well trained admission officers knowledgable of policies and procederes, particularly those special populations with specific regulations.
Comment on Anne Seaton's post: I agree with you, Anne! Ongoing admissions training is very necessary for successful implementation of our jobs and for compliance matters.
