susan,
The enrollment agreement along with the catalog constitute the contract between the student and the school. It is a legal document.

Our institution sends an email notice to all students, faculty and staff that the Annual Security Report is available. The message includes a brief description of the report's content and links to document available on the website. The email message also provides the phone and extension to call in order to request a paper copy.
Enrollent Agreement-the legally binding contract that is signed by the admission's rep and the prospective student agreeing on course study, length of the program, times and dates of the program, prices of the program and costs of any materials, etc.
Title lV Funding-the ability to apply for grants, loans, that a person may be qualified for.
The catalog has essential information and resources that can be applied to day to day activities. I have also obtained helpful websites that can assist prospective students in getting important information.
I have placed a few things in the notebook along with the catalog; some of the state guidelines highlighted so I can use it for quick reference
In my Resource Notebook I have the course catalog for the current year. By reading the catalog I learned a couple of things about the institution that I didn't know. I am familiar with the diploma programs, but did not know about extra certifications that go with the courses.
As an admissions employee there is a great deal of material needed to stay current with all the rules that regulate your institution. The most effective way to gather and update this information is by assembling and maintaining a Resource Notebook.
Clearly the resource notebook is a basic and essential tool for the admissions department. Collect all the issues necessary for them to be consulted at the time when needed. I've put in it all the information about rules and regulations.
It is essentially critical to read and understand in detail the requirements, rules & regulations of the CIE guidelines as I have placed this in my Resource Note Book for rapid reference. I discovered the importance or legal ramifications of "Wording or Contents" not used properly in Advertising.
Thank you! I like the resource notebook suggestion... Despite the fact that I am the School Director... I see that having a reference right at hand is essential!
Phillip,
Excellent! I am glad you have learned a very important compliance issue.
Patty Aronoff
Catherine,
Excellent! Continue to add more resources to assist you in this role. The notebook should work hard for you.
Patty Aronoff
Maria,
The resource notebook should contain all materials to keep you compliant. It will vary from school to school beyond the basics.

I have already created 3 tabs in my resource book! I have the Florida Adminstrative code, The CIE code and "terms and definitions" I was interested in the requirement for a refund of the application fee when the student did not meet school requirements. We are doing that...but did not realize the reason for doing so.
I have just begun to create my Resource Notebook, so first off, I've begun printing information from this course! First thing was the terms and definitions.
The Resource Notebook can be use as a Reference Guide. Now I have placed information like catalog, enrollment agreement, rules and another things like marketing materials and marketing plans. I have also discovered important thigs about agents.
Kayth,
Our website is the first introduction a student will see on the internet. We need to make sure that it is current and the same information that is provided at the school.
