[Oasfaa] 2012 OASFAA Decentralized Training

[DeBoard, Scott]

Good Morning,

OASFAA is pleased to announce the details for our 2012 Decentralized Training.  You'll want to join us for an informative day of training on two important topics.  In addition to Financial Aid staff, this training would be beneficial for certain staff in the Business Office as well as anyone serving on a Default Prevention Task Force.

The morning session will be dedicated to in depth training on Direct Loans.  This training was developed by the NASFAA Training Committee.  Attendees will be able to:

*         Ensure their institution's compliance with Direct Loan regulations,

*         Assist with reconciliation and cash management,

*         Understand cohort default rates (CDRs) and appeals to their institution's CDR

*         Understand Direct Loan servicing, and

*         Identify strategies to guide students entering repayment.

There will plenty of time allowed for discussion and for the exchange of best practice tips.

The afternoon session is designed to assist institutions in understanding, developing, and implementing Default Prevention Plans.  Topics will include:

*         Identifying who needs a Default Prevention Plan,

*         What should be included in a plan,

*         Developing a Default Prevention Task Force, and

*         Instructions for writing your own Default Prevention Plan.

This year's training will be on Friday, November 2, 2012 at the Moore-Norman Technology Center-Franklin Road Campus<http://maps.google.com/maps?q=MNTC+4701+12th+Avenue+NW+Norman,+OK+73069&hl=en&sll=35.27514,-97.459062&sspn=0.007936,0.013078&safe=strict&hq=MNTC+4701+12th+Avenue+NW+Norman,+OK+73069&radius=15000&t=m&z=13&iwloc=A>.
