mary, Very well put, Mary. There is a direct relationship between placement and admissions. It is always good to keep in mind that people seek training to get a job. That is their main focus. So involving placement as much as possible from the start is very important. Employed grads can introduce the school to their employers and to job openings as they occur. Your education department can talk with employers to be sure training programs meet workplace needs. When you think about it, everyone is a team helping the other departments reach their goals.
