CM201 - Admissions Compliance Training for Florida Career Institutions

Facilitator: Patty Aronoff

The Florida Commission for Independent Education now requires that all admissions staff complete approved training. The purpose is to ensure that admissions staff provide prospective students with clear and accurate information. The required training program focuses on fair consumer practices pursuant to Sections 1005.04 and 1005.34, Florida Statutes and Rule 6E-1.0032, Florida Administrative Code. This course is approved by the Commission and covers fair consumer practices for all admissions staff, including Agents who work off campus. The course includes regulatory information, best practices to stay in compliance, and methods to learn about your specific school policies, procedures, programs, and services. By using this course, schools do not have to create their own training program for approval. In addition, this course provides 4 hours of continuing education approved by the Commission.
