I have worked in Healthcare for many years. FERPA is similar to HIPAA in the dental office. You do not talk to others about a patients information the same as you would not talk to others about a students grades or information. If there is documentation that it is ok to disclose information, then it can be discussed to only that person with the proper documentation. 

It is extremely important that the student is aware of what is expected from him/her in the legal agreement. This is a binding contract and can't be completed until all the sections are filled and supporting documents are attached as well.  The brochure has to have all the components that are required to have. I have to make sure everything is clear and the students has all the information and tools that the institution offer them. It's great to be prepared for any kind of questions in the interview.

What I've learned so far is that there's a lot responsibility to find the right candidates that will fit the needs of the students and institution. Learning the regulations, rules and statues are important to stay in compliance with The Florida Commission for Independent Education.  Continuing education is also part of the job to stay up to date with changes and even to refresh the memory with the admission process. 

Good course for compliance 

I really enjoyed this section. It was very informative and enlightening. 

when you are up to date on policies and make sure that things are compliant your job is more understandable and can help you get better results 

A lot of great information i learned that there is much more advertising needed for school than i ever expected.

I really enjoyed reading this module. I learned that keeping a resource notebook is a great way to stay organized, as well with assisting me with my daily duties. I loved all of the tips and I will be utilizing them. I think having a notebook handy with all the information is extremely helpful. 

ive learned that there is a lot of paper work and information that needs to be  understood and done correctly to ensure a smooth process 

That i am able to make my own resources to help me understand and complete my job correctly 

Describing methods for staying up-to-date in all areas of the institution, including program offerings, job placement rates for each program , employment projections, and other relevant industry information. 

I’ve learned that it is very important to be knowledgeable about Admissions policies and many other protocols 

In this module I was able to learn about the different advertising methods that each institution uses to attract that future student to enroll in our institution. I also learned that I should have knowledge about what study program offers, what we offer as an institution and the information I need to know to be able to answer any type of student concern 

From this module I learned that I must take into account that in the interview process I must make sure to have all the information on hand for any possible question that the student or parent may have when signing the contract. 

in this module i learned that as admission representatives we must to know absolutely everything about the institution in which we work in order to be able to give clear and precise information to that future candidate (student) since in the prequalificaton process it is the moment when where the future student makes the decision whether to preceed to enroll or cancel everything. For this reason this module showed me that i must be fully trained with all the updates information to be able to bring the correct information to future students. 

I have learned that understanding Florida Statutes or the lack thereof and how it can impact our business both positively and negatively.  Very interesting.

Thus far, this training has provided guidance on proper procedures. I found the most used out of the terms definitions. 

What I have learnt is just how important learning and taking the training program is before actually doing the job so that way I can know how to effectively do my job within the guidelines.

My discussion relates to one of the quiz questions  under "Legal Obligations and Opportunities."

For the student who has Asperger's syndrome, there was no information about whether reasonable accommodations were provided to him. A decision was to be made based solely on the information provided.

I know that students with liabilities in higher learning institutions should be held accountable for their actions/ violations. However, I keep asking myself, if reasonable accommodation(s) was provided for the student.

Am I overthinking this?

I am not disputing the correct answer on the quiz because it seemed more logical than the other choices.

Any comments and or clarifications are welcomed.

We are located in Puerto Rico and Florida. What happen if in the future we hire professor form others state?
