The College Awareness and Preparation (CAP) committee invites you to a free workshop that will provide information on strategies to help ensure your target population is in attendance at your outreach event, with particular emphasis on FAFSA Completion Workshops. Real research data will be used to communicate effective strategies for reaching your audience, including the proper use of marketing materials, value messages, and the always-important reason that outreach is necessary. We will also have an open forum discussion where we will invite you to share your success stories with fellow attendees. Additionally, a short overview of the 2009-10 FAFSA highlighting the changes made to the form for the upcoming year will be provided. The training will be provided by the Illinois Student Assistance Commission and will offer 3.5 CPDUs for attending counselors.
Registration the day of the workshop begins at 8:30 a.m., with the session itself starting at 9 a.m. There will be a working lunch at 11:30 a.m., and the session will conclude at 12:30 p.m.
