I have been in admissions for over a decade ,but I find the training a needed part of my career. I am not a believer that you do not need to keep updated on information just because you have been in a field for long time. The laws, rules, and regulations continue to change and we in Admissions must be kept updated as to do what is right for the student wanting to further their future education plans.

Even though i have been an agent/admissions rep for 18 years i learned some new techniques from this course. I thought it was a very good course.

Hello All.

I am grateful for my new job as an Admissions Representative. The training is intense, especially the mock interviews. I find the script hard to memorize; I guess the key is to make it your own. What has been some of your challenges as a new or seasoned Admissions Rep?

Thanks for listening.

      As a newcomer to the job in college Admissions and/or Student Services, I found this online course extremely informative, well-written and user-friendly to people like me who are "technologically challenged" on various electronic gadgets. As an English teacher, writer, and editor, it was fascinating for me to see the legal 'backdrop' of precise information required by the FLDOE and the FIC in the composing and writing of the college's course catalog and its financial (and other) documents. 

     One question that I have from working this week with students who want to transferr credits into our institution concerns the 'age' of the courses being considered.… >>>

I really enjoyed this training session, I learned a lot of information that I thought I already knew.  Very informative and I would recommend this to everyone who works in any type of higher education admissions department.

I found this training to be very important and informative especially since I'm kind of the new girl with adult education. I found that its important to have content relates with adult learners, whereas with the high school students it didn't really matter as long as the discussion was interesting. Adults focus on the "what's in it for me" aspect of learning, which I enjoy!

Good training is a must. I always use the 5 P's Prior planning prevents piss poor performance :) This traing was very informative and I enjoyed it.

This course was awesome because I was able to manage my time and make it through in a reasonable amount of time. Great organization of materials!

I really enjoy this training session because it really reiterated how well we are staying up to par on training with our schools. Admission Representatives can only benefit from such training due to the in depth information on policy and procedures we cover. I think more training situations such as these should continue.

The only experience that I had prior taking this training, that it was "awsome," was thru my college education plus vocational training in the civilian , and military life. You go across the admission staff at college level they do  not provide you with all the information that is required according to your traning. At college level you need to see many staff; the counselor  look at your transcription to see if they are going to accept your credits. And sometimes at the end of the journal you realize that not all the information you gather from them were the correct… >>>

I loved the fact that I could go at my own pace.  That made learning more enjoyable.  Continuing educating ourselves on what we do is the best way to perform better at our job.  The forums were great too.  If I had questions...they usually got answered!

I took the admissions and compliance courses.  What did everyone else think about it?

Thanks!

I have gone through several trainings in different areas in my employment history and this one was the most professional, concise and provided extremely valuable information.  The design of the quizzes makes is crucial to read each one carefully to avoid making an interpretive mistake.  I enjoyed the challenge of the questions and the content.  Thank you!

I did like how we could go at our own pace.  It was definitely a lot of information especially with all the daily changes we undergo.  I feel like over the last month all of the compliance, policies and procedures have changed.  But, this course did go over alot of information that people may have questioned before.

I enjoyed the training, because I was able to move at my own pace through the material. It also covered all areas a veteran Admissions representative or new representative needs to know to stay compliant.

I have experience in the higher learning field but I learned some new practices and policies I wasn't fully aware of.

The biggest take away is that the training is good but putting all these practices to use immediately,  is key.

 Bottom line, we are responsible for educating qualified students through an ethical and compliant system.

I truly enjoy taking these classes. I have learned so much about what I am doing and how I can improve on my teaching skills to make it much better. I don't won't to rush through the classes because I want to understand it fully, but I can't help but want to do the next class because I find them to be so interesting. I know we can only take a certain amount per quarter, but we should be allowed to take as many as we would like as long as we reach the required amount. I love to learn, therefore,… >>>

I believe this was a pretty good training. A lot of this information that if you are an employee with Delta, you have to know it anyways or you've probably already been in trouble. I enjoyed taking this online class because I did learn a few new things and I think it may help me as an Admissions Representative.

I would have to say that this was a very thorough training on compliance and ethics.  It is very important now that we incorporate what we have learned in our corporate culture.  Though I am careful with how I handle people in the admissions process, the training helped me to see a more in-depth glimpse of what challenges we have to overcome as well as how to uphold the integrity of the institution better.  I'm excited to be armed with knowledge that I can apply everyday. 

Unfortunately there aren't outlines on creating a course catalog correctly and the information that is required.  One has to first submit the information to then get correspondence on everything that is done wrong and the corrections that need to be made.  Taking this online course was one of the requirements which I was initially irritated about but now that it is over I am grateful that I did because it was very informative while allowing me to provide students the information that they rightfully deserve to make an informed decision before attending our institution.  Thanks

I've taken several on line admission courses over the years but CM201 was as good as it gets! I'm motivated to update my resource book and re-create it more in line with the course suggestions. We plan on adding two new admission reps this spring......this course will be a priority for them!
