Compliance Regulations

What are your views?

School and academic library

There a lots of resources on internal auditing which largely focus on the student financial aid, but I haven’t found anything focuses on compliance issues for academic or school libraries. The libraries are so important in an auditing because the students’ needs to find and create their knowledge in the libraries. The financial aspect it’s important, but the academic issues are important too.

Moving and Shaking

Education is going through a movement in regulations, documentation, and changes. It is imperative for courses like this to exist to make sure we are doing right by the student. I feel having the laws and policies at hand makes me  more professional in my field and better at advising those looking to attend college.

The credibility adds pride to my industry in which I have built a career now for over a decade.
