Student Employment Essentials Training - SEE Training

National Student Employment Association (NSEA) Student Employment Essentials (SEE) Training; Track A and Track B

May 29-30, 2013

University of Hawaii at Manoa

Honolulu, Hawaii

Offered by the Western Association of Student Employment

Administrators (WASEA)

For the newly promoted student employment administrator, all the information you need to hit the ground running.

For the experienced administrator, a chance to gain powerful new insights and perspectives on the essentials of student employment.

 Why attend?

A National Student Employment Associations’ survey indicates that the majority of professionals in student employment have been at their jobs only 1 to 3 years, and many were thrust into the position from their work as financial aid administrators, career counselors, or personnel administrators. With little preparation, and new to the field of student employment, many feel ill-equipped to run the programs of which they find themselves in charge. Now you have a resource.

Student Employment Essentials Training (SEE) Training

Both sessions are designed to stand alone; it is not necessary to attend one before attending the other.

Who should attend?

Student Employment Administrators, Financial Aid Advisors, Human Resource Coordinators, Career Counselors, Student Affairs Professionals, Business and Agency Representatives, anyone interested in student employment issues.

Attend this professional workshop and learn the foundations of effective student employment programs. Our expert trainers will provide you with well-researched, practical information you can apply immediately. And the value is unbeatable—for the small cost you'll get a wide range of important student information, access to an expert, lunch, the opportunity to share information with colleagues, the training manual, and a Certificate of Completion.

What you'll get from each track:

Track A

Review of Fair Labor Standards Act, IRS rules and ADA compliance

Crucial information on interviewing students for jobs

Regulations concerning employing international students

FERPA, I9s and W4s

Track B

Department of Education guidelines for Federal Work-Study
