Get Your Students Hired
What has struck me more is the transferability of credits, had not too much idea of that and now I know that the better I understand the policy of my institution, the better I can help the students
I learned about different resources and links that I can utilize in order to keep my information up to date and within compliance. Also learned the importance of setting and maintaining a Resource Notebook with critical and current information. Keeping up with the industries and everything regarding the programs we offer in our institutions, as well as credit transfer policy must be clearly communicated to the prospect student, was another take-a-away.
It is tremendously important to constantly check in with my superiors and with state regulations as to always be in compliance as things can change quickly.
This section of module went over transfer credits and accredidation. It also emphasized not only learning about and from the different departments, it also was a reminder to stay up to date with any changes to your school and any new rules and regulations.
The participation in the meeting that will be held by different departments is really important, and also the difference between licensing and accreditation.
I plan on using the periodic training resources offered by FAPSC as well as training offered by my institution to stay current and compliant in my role as Admissions Representative.
I learned so far that: meetings and ongoing training are very important to the continued professional development of an admission representative
The resource notebook requires continual updates and must maintain critical information, which will ensure to make everyone's lives easier.
We always keep our checklist in place and insure students receive student hand books.
Be sure to have and attend meetings that update policies and information within the institution.
In our world of admissions, as well as serving the students, we must keep in mind that training is ongoing, as well as continuing education.
Staying up to date can be an ongoing process that we can build into our school administration schedule.
I have learned from this module that maintaining up-to-date resources is a stepping stone in staying compliant and gaining aswell as maintaining our student body and staff.
