I feel we were given a good foundation of training and materials and felt good about what I already knew on the requirements from our internal training programs. I will be placing the notes from this program and some of the maxknowledge printed sections in my notebook for reference along with the rules from this obtained from this course. I will also be keeping an electronic file on some key points so I can access easily from my desktop. Thank you.
Lina,
Definitions are similar to a language. We need to understand the words and use them appropriately. For many people, these terms are foreign to them. Taking the extra time to explain the terms makes everyone understand their impact and use.

Edric,
The enrollment agreement and the catalog constitute the contract between the student and the school. It is extremely important that the student understands the documents they are signing their name to.
Patty Aronoff
Jeffrey,
Thank you for posting your University's definitions. This helps others to understand the use by your school.

You can reference both statute and rule for the definitions as stated by the Florida Department of Education.

Lorri,
Using the definitions regularly is excellent! We always have to remember that for many prospective students, this may be the first time they have heard the term and many are either too shy or too embarrassed to ask what they mean.

The terminology is so important. Start by reviewing the definitions as outlined in both statute and rule, then compare to your catalog.

Congratulations on your pathway to compliance. Building both at the same time will certainly assist you in both roles.

Accuracy is key. Just by using the wrong word, you can change the entire meaning.

The important fact is that you can reach the material you need when you need it.

This is a new position for me so I have to learn as much as I can to be successful. I have the catalog, enrollment agreement and organizational chart in my resource book at this point.
I now know the key terms and most of all I learn about the Rules, Codes and Regulations that governs this sector. I certainly will be adhering to them. I was very surprise to know that my institution even though it is very small had to adhere to the rules similar to larger institution
