Career Services

My institution partnered with an online career counseling organization. I am not sure how effective this is for our students. I am interested in starting an onsite center and working it through our admissions office. Where do you suggest I begin?

role model

Since you are always in an educational envirotment, you must be a good role model to others in order to not only gain their respect but to also be able to teach them to act professional when they enter their occupations once they've graduated.

Staying current re school policies and procedures

A school is only as good as it's structure. The employees should all be cognizant of standing policy as well as new developments. We can never stop updating and reviewing the matters that make the school, professinal and compliant. We should always stand at the ready to inform students and staff alike that we are aware of all the workings in the school and the varied functions of the various depts. We can never learn or update too much.

Understanding the institution

To be able to openly discuss and impart information regarding the school and all of it's workings is a key part of showing professionalism and conveying to the prospective student that we are fully transparent and willing to address all aspects of the potential learning experience. It is best to show the public that the tradition and long standing success of this institution is a product of consisteently doing things in the proper manner and adhering to the rules and regulations laid out before us.

The Admissions process re paperwork

It cannot be stressed that accuracy as far as paperwork is concerned remains a vital part of the admissions process. We must always strive to hold to the highest standards as far keeping our detailed paperwork beyond reproach. we must also remember that less than stellar paperwork speaks volumes not just on a procedural level but also to the prospective student as far as our proficiency.

Validation Of High School Diploma

Last year we were provided at a conference given by our acrediting agency with a "Black List" of schools that their High School diplomas were not valid or acceptable proof of High School completion. This list was not prepared by the Department of Education but by another independent institution. How do you feel about this so called " Black List" and how are handling the validation process of High School diplomas presented by a prospective student at time of enrollment?

An idea for Directors of Recruitment/Admissions

After going through this course, I asked myself, is my staff familiar with everything on the Enrollment Agreement? If so, would they be able to explain it line by line to a student if they had too? I felt as it that answer was no, so that brings me to an idea that I had. Why not print these documents off, pass them out to our teams, and create trivia games/tests/contests on their knowledge of these extremely important documents.
