TRAINING

The acute shortage of individuals with financial aid experience combined with high rates of turnover of financial aid staff presents a significant human resource challenge for many colleges and universities. In addition, this lack of experience is causing many schools to face compliance risks related to complicated financial aid regulations.

We have heard from many clients that both new and experienced staff would benefit from training in specific areas to improve individual competencies. The result, better overall financial aid processing and compliance.

Here are some examples of how HES can help you with your financial aid training and educational needs.

TARGETED TRAINING

Some include training as part of corrective action plans designed to improve compliance. HES can provide training support that is targeted to your school's specific needs such as verification or R2T4 processing. This allows you to improve internal controls by focusing on specific problem areas unique to your institution.

TWO-DAY IMMERSION PROGRAM

Do you have a new hire who has no financial aid experience or an experienced employee who needs to brush up? Send them to us and we will provide two-day immersion training on all the financial aid basics, freeing up your time to focus on institution-specific training.

SPECIAL TRAINING SERVICES

Do you want to set up a long-term training program for your school that offers participants certificates of completion, requires testing, and provides you with an evaluation of employee performance? Please contact us to learn how we can establish such a program for your school.

The advantages of HES Financial Aid Training™ include:
 
  • Helping new employees make meaningful contributions as quickly as possible to maintain continuity of service to students
     
  • Helping minimize compliance risk by having staff training in the basics of financial aid as early as possible after date of hire
     
  • Reducing the burden on existing staff of providing training, allowing them to continue to focus on their job responsibilities
     
  • Reducing the reliance on financial aid professional association training dates that may or may not meet the institution’s needs or may not be scheduled within a reasonable timeframe from the date of hire
     
  • Providing new staff immersion training and education that is customized to meet specific institutional needs, thereby quickly improving departmental operating efficiency
     
  • Helping leadership and human resources assess new employee fit with financial aid positions
