Serving and Supporting Low Income Students 2014:
Next and Promising Practices
Next and Promising Practices
Wednesday,
May 7th • 2-3:30 pm (ET)
There has never been a
more critical time to strive toward educating every student that enters into a
post-secondary institution. At every government level, agendas contain
educational attainment goals that address the importance of having an educated
U.S. population approaching 60% in 2020/2025.
These ambitious goals will require higher education to demonstrate a focused and intentional support for all students, with special emphasis on low income students who have often not had the same resources or support systems their peers have had as they pursue a college degree.
Join us for an interactive webinar where you will learn about effective and adaptable strategies to provide assistance and guidance to low income students, validating their decision to seek post-secondary education while not minimizing the work that must take place or the struggles they face.
Issues that will be addressed include:

Counseling:
Critical Considerations in Conduct, Compliance & Confidentiality
Critical Considerations in Conduct, Compliance & Confidentiality
Wednesday,
July 30th • 2-3:30 pm (ET)
Your campus counseling and conduct staff are often balancing
the diverse needs of the academic community, the management of student behavior
and compliance with applicable federal regulations and guidance.
It is not
uncommon for faculty and staff to request confidential information from
counseling or conduct offices regarding students. Or, demand that the
institution mandate mental health treatment or removal of students from campus.
These requests, coupled with the growing demands of parents and news agencies,
can leave institutional staff feeling pulled in multiple — and sometimes
competing — directions.
Regulations
regarding the exclusion of threats to self under Title II, sexual assaults
under Title IX, the Violence Against Women’s Act, and FERPA, continue to create
increased challenges to addressing disruptive and disturbing student behavior
while maintaining confidentiality and compliance.
Join our expert
panelists, coming from counseling, conduct and legal perspectives, as they
address these critical considerations that necessitate on-going conversations
and training of your staff members.
