The information is very informative and helps to keep admissions representatives and the schools operating honest programs that benifit our students
If only everyone in the industry followed all compliance rules...as long as you do your organization will thrive and you will ensure scalability and job security for yourself and others!
I totally agree. I have run into a few people who work in admissions who pressure and/or "sell" the school to the prospective student. I personally feel that is wrong. We should let the student know that we are an ear to listen, and there to help them get there career started.
The requirements provide a basis for which the representative must follow. They are also used to ensure that the representative is following the rules and regulations set forth by the Commission.
It is possible that an Admissions agent might not have very single answer a student requires. I think it is very important that the agents states clearly that they need to consult with another person to provide the most accurate information. Honesty helps to cement trust
You need to know all the rules and regulation to be sure you comply and don't misrepresent to protect the consumer
Good afternoon!
They regulate Admissions processes. Therefore, as an admissions representative, I am to follow these regulations at all times.

By providing honest valuable information to the future student, not only markets the institution through word of mouth but also makes the school more credible. It provides positive feedback to the institution and the public.
These requirements should be learned and reviewed often. Compliance is mandatory. However, these regulatory requirements should only be the beginning of what we expect of ourselves in the Admissions Department. In addition, we should challenge ourselves to be as honest and forthright with prospective students as possible. This means we must continue to learn as much as possible about our school, its programs and departments.
CIE's requirements determine a great deal of our school's policies and procedures--including the admission's process. We are very conscientious regarding the importance of being in compliance with CIE's standards and take great care to ensure that we remain up-to-date on regulations and update our policies to reflect any changes.
Regulatory agency's such as the Commission for Independent Education allows an institution to stay informed and knowledgeable on current rules and regulations which will enhance knowledge and provide better student outcomes.
Marta,
Details are very important. If we do not explain in detail then we can be misleading to our students.

The regulations are there to protect both you and the student. It's a win-win situation in which all are covered.

Honesty, integrity, and transparency are the key components to a well-run admissions department.

Natalia,
Yes, if everyone would just follow the rules. But unfortunately, not everyone has followed the rules and that is what makes the news giving our sector a very bad name.

Robert,
Compliance is another word for protection. When we are compliant we are following the rules which protect the student,the school and ourselves.
Patty Aronoff
Sherene,
Absolutely! Is the best practice to say let's find out and get the correct answer rather than giving an unsure one.
Patty Aronoff
Tammi,
Exactly! We do need to know the rules and regulations and how to apply them appropriately. Misrepresentation often happens when we don't have solid knowledge.

Camille ,
The rules and regulations are there to protect all involved. As admissions representatives, we are the first line of defense when it comes to compliance.

Karina,
People are very quick to share their experiences. When you have a positive experience, it markets your school well. Our goal is to provide positive enriching experiences for all those who enter our doors.
