Failure to provide or communicate accurate Disclosures will place your employment and institution at risk. Students need to have a clear understanding on the concept of the disclosures to come up with a sound decision in enrolling. 

Transparency and integrity goes hand in hand to achieve student's trust in an institution. We always have to remember that any misrepresentation that a school does, it will always be the student who is on the losing end because it deprives them of their opportunity to have a career or a bright future.

Very informative especially the differrent regulations for each states. Importance of providing appropriate/factual consumer disclosures.

Providing accurate information about the school and its programs is very important so clients can make the right decisions. It is important to always provide a realistic outlook on every information that you give out to prospective clients to avoid misrepresentation.

It boils down to transparency. Do not promise what you can't deliver. Rules and regulations are there for a reason, they need to be followed to avoid penalty or paying huge fines.

Teamwork is the key in passing compliance regulations. The work cannot be done by just one department or one person. Success can be achieved by conserted effort of everybody within the institution.

Accountability is to be taken seriously because the consequence is having to pay huge fines and possible jail time! 

It's very important to learn what triggers a DOE review, the importance of reporting and keeping records to achieve accuracy in everything. 

Have a better understanding of the financial aid flow : from receiving the isir to disbursement, to withdrawals and return of title 4 funds. Very informative and helpful.

I learned that timeliness and accuracy are key factors in having an efficient FA office. It is also very important to have exemplary customer service because it is what differentiates your school from other schools offering the same courses. Exceeding student expectation is the KEY to building student loyalty.
