Good refresher

I've been in this industry for 7 years now and while a lot has changed, much has stayed true to the original ideas. It was a pleasure revisiting the information to ensure we all stay on top of it!

Rumor

Rumor: an unverified account or explanation of events circulating from person to person and pertaining to an object, event, or issue in public concern.

We all need to be mindful of the FACT that rumors may or MAY NOT be true, so using a rumor as fact would be dishonest.

Great training

This was a great training. It was very understanding and informative. 

 

Set your school apart

Sometimes you hear rumors about your competition, - that they are saying negative things about your school.

Even if that is the case, doesn't mean your school needs to follow in their footsteps.

Take the high road, stay positive, and be proud of the job you do. When you do that, I guarantee your enrollments will see that too. They don't want to hear why the shouldn't go to the other school, they want to hear why they should go to yours.

 

Same old thing

I have realized over the last few years, that not changing your instruction (classes that are taught), can sometimes be a burnout, without you realizing it.

It is a great thing to step back, and come with new ways to teach the required curriculum, but to turn - possible burnout - to a fun, optimistic experience for all.

Passion = happy self, happy employees and more importantly have customers.

 

Admissions knowledge

It is important to brainstorm and share your experiences so others can continue to learn as well. Get to know about each department in your  institution. keep updated on all procedures, rules and regulations or any changes, learn something every day. There is always room for knowledge and improvements

Admission trainning

This trainning course for admissions have a lot of information. The links are really usefull to be up to date on compliance and regulations

Admissions Rep

I have been an Admission's Representative for quite some time, but am new to this university.  The course was an excellent refresher and was very easy to use.

Solid Course

I thought the course was very thorough and the interface was easy-to-use and the information was extremely vital. I'm new to the educational field and have learned much more than I had hoped to in a relatively short space of time.

Do the Right Thing

I've been doing Financial Aid for a very long time, and it's always good to get a refresher.   What sets Concorde apart is how we conduct our business by doing the "right thing" days in and out.

 

compliance

It is so important to read all the fine print when it comes to comliance . . missing even the smallest thing can not only hurt the person but the institution!

 

Course review

This was a great refresher course, it was very informative and good reminders of what we can say or can’t say.

Serving Students with Disabilities

Friday, July 26th, 2013 marked the 23rd anniversary of the signing of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA has expanded opportunities for Americans with disabilities by reducing barriers, changing perceptions and increasing full participation in community life. I wanted to review two federal laws that protect students with disabilities from discrimination at the postsecondary level.

The first law is found in Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (implemented in 1977). As it applies to higher education, the critical portion of Section 504 essentially says that if you are a school that receives any kind of federal… >>>

Compliance Issues

Dangerous Waters

Working for a Private, For-Profit, Career School in Ohio, we are pretty carefully schooled in what we can say, what we can't say, and what we MUST say.  Still, through this course I've discovered that there are a number of areas of confusion out there: areas where we are doing certain things in the name of "compliance" that we don't fully understand, giving perhaps too little emphasis to some things, and too much emphasis to others.  Anyone else encountering the same?

 

Renewal Course

I really enjoyed how the learning modules were formatted. It helped me understand the information, while keeping the information organized in my mind. I think this course serves as a great reminder and helps each admissions advisor make sure they are complying with the rules and regulations.

Final quiz

I was surprised to see that the final quiz was all different as far as the previous quizes.

Taking it all in

This training was very different from what I am use to , my previous job was more little test here and there with small group trainings that didnt allow you to tak it all in . I feel this was very detailed and really helped with a better understanding of the rules , laws and whats expected from agents . I feel more confident in what I am doing as a agent and what I can do to better service the prospective student
