Sitting in on classes
I think this is a great idea and will inquire as to whether it's an option where I work. Having previously recruited for a program I graduated from added to my knowledge of the program, the schools, enabled faculty familiarity, etc all of which augmented my passion.
I agree, sitting in on a class can really help you get back into the mindset of being a student and remind you of the things a prospective student would find important.
By participating in a class we can best written student who is interested in inscribirce in our institution.
Sitting in classes is a very helpful technique to understand the student experience once they begin thier classes. This is something that prospective students are curious about and we can give them some insight. Not only that, it allows us to understand programs and classes better in order to effectively communicate what they entail.

I think it is important fprnew representatives to sit in on classes in order to understand the student experience. I have all of my new team members do this as well as speak to someone from each department.
I 5think it is a great idea to sit in a class, that would give me a little bit more of knowledge about each program.
I learn alot about the programs that my college offers, from sitting in the classrooms.
I learned the most by sitting in and having the instructors tour me through the school to drcribe what each area is utilized for.
I also love this idea as the more information we can provide to our future students, the easier it is for them to figure out if this is the program for them and make a final decision. Being that time can be limited, we have been having Program Academic Chairs come in and give us Product Knowledge training. This has helped tremendously in our interviews!
I intend to sit in the classroom to gain knowledge of the instruction, class size, and observation of the students.
Pamela,
I love sitting in on classes. It's like it's a great reminder why we are in the business we are in and what we actually do at our school.

I would hope your institution would allow you to sit in on classes. One would have to question why this would not be considered.
