Subject: Webinar Recording - Default Aversion and Management

Summary: This letter announces the availability of Federal Student Aid’s recording of a webinar on the cohort default rate process and default management, including effective default prevention strategies.

Dear Colleague:

We are pleased to announce the availability of the recorded version of our online, instructor-led training session that discussed what schools need to know about the cohort default rate process and default management. This webinar provided valuable information on the cohort default rate calculation, the challenges and appeals process, and required corrective action resulting from high cohort default rates. How to implement an effective default prevention strategy was also discussed.

Federal Student Aid staff presented this information on several separate occasions in November and December 2013. For a complete description of the session, refer to Dear Colleague Letter ANN-13-17.

The "Default Aversion and Management" webinar recording is available on the Federal Student Aid E-Training Web site, located at http://fsatraining.info.
