About this Webinar
This Webinar is the first in a series of initiatives being carried out by NACAC’s NCAA Advisory Board and the staff of the NCAA Eligibility Center in an effort to better serve the young men and women who are interested in participating in intercollegiate athletics. It is designed for all levels of experience – from veterans to those who are new to the initial eligibility process. Topics to be covered include:
- A brief overview of the NCAA and the Eligibility Center
- Amateurism and academic requirements
- Core course review process
- An introduction to the NEW High School Administration Web portal
- Current trends and hot topics
Target audience: Secondary School Administrators
Objectives: The initial eligibility certification process is most successful when responsibility is equally shared among students, families, high schools, colleges/universities, and the Eligibility Center.
