The way we reach students around the globe is changing. As global enrollment management and marketing professionals the pressure is increasingly high at ensuring we are finding and attracting students that will be a good fit and succeed at our institutions.
Recent research by Chegg's global enrollment management group indicates a shift in how students find college information via social media, online search, and their mobile devices. This webinar will focus on that research and ways institutions can address these shifts quickly in a cost-effective manner.

A10 Best Practices For Non-Traditional Student RecruitmentGreenwood & Hall
10 Best Practices For Non-Traditional Student Recruitment - A Guide For Post-Secondary Schools Competing For Non-Traditional Students. Presented by Greenwood & Hall at AACRAO SEM XIX 11/10/09 in Dallas, TX.
Why is the college discovery process so broken? Our solution (1st pitch)George K
Education is at the core of who we are. Our closest friends and our future career path by enlarge depend on where we go to college, right? If the stakes are so high why should the burden of search be on high school students? With so much white noise how can teenagers find out what school matches their potential? Today students are making arguably the most important decision in their life based on US New rankings and perceptions of friends and family, leading to stress for students today and wasted potential down the line.
There has to be a better way. We want to change the way high school students interact with universities by enabling colleges to reach out directly to students based on their achievements, interests, and preferences

Webinar-Transnational Education: Growth at the Expense of Quality?DrEducation
To access the recording to the webinar visit ( http://bit.ly/TNE24May ).
A global online discussion on transnational education trends was hosted by University World News, an online publication, in partnership with DrEducation, a higher education research and consulting firm. It attracted more than 950 registered participants from across the international higher education scene.
Cross-border delivery of higher education is becoming a financial necessity for some institutions and a strategic differentiation for others. Transnational education (TNE) takes many forms ranging from joint-degrees and branch campuses to recent emergence of technology-enabled learning. While TNE has provided new opportunities for global engagement and expansion for many institutions, these models often come with challenges of quality. Is growth of TNE dependent on more flexible standards of quality? Or, are we stifling innovation in TNE by putting too many barriers for experimentation?

How students search for and decide for a university has grown more complex: the search process and the consulted channels have multiplied.
UNIspotter conducted a study among 86 students (business; interested in pursuing a Master) to observe how they search, where they search and what they search for when deciding for a study program.
We discovered that the search process follows a pattern (4 stages):
- Browse universities (50+ programs)
- Narrow down the option (15-25 programs)
- Detailed Research: Compare (10 programs)
- (Pre-)Decision: Apply (on average 5 programs)
However, not all the touch points are considered equally relevant for the final decision.
The university of the future needs to attract top-talent in a rapidly changing market and needs to manage the information that impacts the future students' decision.
But: most of the time you are not even aware that potential students make decisions about you. Google calls this "The Zero Moment of Truth" - customers researching about you on the internet before they decide to buy a service.
How do students consider university rankings, accreditations, search engines, online portals and the direct contact with universities?
We want to provide you an insight into what we found out.
And input on how you can identify the customer journey your students have had as well as a check-list on how to find room for improvement.

Online education and internationalization have been rising as strategic priorities for many university leaders around the world. While online experiments like MOOCs, badging, blended learning are still early in their evolution, few institutions have taken an innovative approach to finding a synergy between technological innovations and their application in global engagement strategies. And, of those who attempted to engage globally through technology have experienced several barriers related to cost, quality, recognition, and outcomes. This online discussion examined how university leaders are leveraging technology for advancing internationalization? How does technology fit in the overall global engagement strategy? What are the challenges and opportunities?

Trends in Student Perspectives: Key Insights to Understanding Gen X&YGil Rogers
Understanding the student mindset is one of the most important—and often challenging—priorities for today's enrollment officers. In a media-saturated world, students are bombarded with information and choices moreso than ever before—making the job of connecting with the right student, in the right way, with the right message even more critical. Through thousands of direct interactions with students, Chegg has identified four different student profiles and the five things each cares about most—providing a framework for enrollment professionals to engage them effectively. Attendees will leave the session with a better understanding of who they're talking to, how to reach them and what they care about most. Don't miss this opportunity to look at the college search process through the lens of the student perspective.
Traditionally, enrollment managers have been left with a choice. Invest in what works, or take a dive in to something new. What if it wasn't an "or". What if it were an "and". This presentation shows the new way Chegg can support better conversions at each phase of the recruitment funnel while not adding to the overall budget commitment.
How do enrollment managers find that balance between long-term strategy and just bringing in their class? This webinar will provide some insights and suggestions for bridging short-term enrollment gaps while not sacrificing long-term strategic planning.
Digital Dominance: The 2016 Social Admissions Report - China EditionGil Rogers
Digital and mobile marketing is extremely prevalent in the US when it comes to college recruitment. However, the same strategies and tactics that work in the United States don’t necessarily work abroad; particularly in China where different media and search engines dominate the student landscape.
This presentation will use research conducted by Zinch China (a division of Chegg Enrollment Services based in Beijing) as well as data from Baidu (China’s #1 online search engine) to shed light on best practices and opportunities for brand building, student engagement and recruitment via digital tools, mobile devices, and social media. This webinar will provide keen insight towards the digital recruitment technology used in China.
As you begin to wrap up (or work on!) your 2017 fiscal year planning, it's important to buckle down on what works while shift resources away from lower performing investments.
We understand that most institutions are under pressure to do more with less, while at the same time students are under pressure to not only find their best fit match but also succeed and pay for it. That is why we've revamped a number of our tools to assist institutions with finding, engaging, and converting prospects throughout the recruitment process.
This presentation will focus on high impact strategies including:
Name buy options that support any strategy and budget
Digital and mobile marketing strategies to boost conversion and yield
Branding strategies to help tell your success stories and put your best foot forward across the web
All registrants will receive a customized competitive intelligence report that showcases student demand and perspectives of their institution across the web to help inform digital marketing strategies.

Carving Your Niche: New Methods of Digital Marketing for Higher EducationGil Rogers
How we build our brand, capture student interest, and engage and convert prospects is changing. From digital "shop and compare" sites to mobile marketing platforms; how are admissions and enrollment management professionals to keep up?
In partnership with Niche.com, the Chegg Enrollment Services team has compiled recent research on how students access college information at the research and discovery phase, as well as ways they continue to shop, compare, and evaluate their choices through their final enrollment decision.
Additionally, our team will provide insights into best practices for continued brand building and student engagement in a digital age.

Technology has changed everything: from how we watch movies and television shows to how we plan our vacations. It's no surprise that millennials and the iGeneration, born when Google began and in grade school when Facebook took off, naturally gravitate to technological resources for everything from their electronics purchases to their college search. Chegg, the student hub, has performed in-depth research on how students use technology at each phase of their student lifecycle; from college search and discovery, to information consumption, and finally pursuing internships and their first careers. This session will provide an overview of the entire student lifecycle and how enrollment managers and student services professionals can leverage technology to maximize student success.

Seven Marketeers was established to execute part of the course deliverables of an undergraduate class in Digital Communications at the University of Wollongong in Spring 2010.
Seven Marketeers’ mission was to engage in detailed research to provide relevant, insightful and useful recommendations to two real world clients. The goal was to undertake an analysis of current and future online behavioural trends and provide actionable insights into how these trends can best be utilised to inform improved online user interface design and communications, with user satisfaction as the key objective. Seven Marketeers aimed to deliver a set of fully grounded and researched recommendations to its clients, so as to enable them to effectively meet the needs of a user-base that is continually modifying its expectations of information consumption as technology evolves.

Hacking the College Search: Key Influencers at Key Phases of the College SearchGil Rogers
Recent research has indicated that the college search paradigm has changed. The proliferation of mobile apps, social media, and the web have placed pressure on enrollment managers to buckle down on what works while continuing to evolve how (and when) they reach prospective students.
Hacking the College Search, a collaborative study between Chegg and NRCCUA, takes a look at the key influencers on college-bound high school students at each major phase of the process; from discover to decision.
Building Your Transfer Outreach Action PlanGil Rogers
Recent data from University Business indicates that over half of higher ed administrators anticipate an increase in transfer student enrollment in the coming years. With the continued growth of opportunity comes the increased importance in differentiating your institution.
More and more transfer student recruitment is becoming a critical part to how institutions achieve their enrollment goals. However, traditional practices for finding and engaging transfer students don’t always work.
Leveraging online tools, colleges and universities can save time, save money, and recruit smarter by focusing on three main strategies:
-- Find students actively researching you or are a best fit match based on their profile
-- Leverage retargeting to focus ad impressions on students actively researching you at the height of their interest
-- Utilize mobile and social outreach to build your brand on the specific community college campuses and students you are trying to reach
This presentation uncovers recent research that uncovers how and where prospective transfer students research and prefer to be in contact with the 4-year colleges they are considering.
Mobile Advertising 101: Beyond GeofencingGil Rogers
Location-Based Mobile Advertising is an exciting technology that may be used to reach targeted students where they are. Whether you are trying to reach potential transfer students on a community college campus, potential grad students downtown, or potential undergrads at their high school, "geofencing" can be a great way to focus in on those locations and drive targeted advertising volume.
However, not all geofencing is the same. It can be very easy to drive a high volume of impressions with low engagement, leading to questionable ROI.
This webinar will focus on the "Do's and Don'ts" of digital marketing; specifically with regard to mobile advertising strategies and how to avoid some of the pitfalls while putting yourself in the best position for success.
The Maturation of Mobile and Social: The 2017 Social Admissions ReportGil Rogers
Social media is no longer new. Neither is mobile. And yet, it still seems extremely difficult to stay current and up-to-date with what prospective students want and need. With constant changes in student preferences and behavior, how are enrollment marketers to keep up?
This year's edition of the Social Admissions Report will focus on recent trends and shifts in student use of digital tools like college help sites, social media sites like Instagram and Snapchat, and mobile technology to find and access college information during their search and selection process.
The Do's and Don'ts for Digital Marketing for Higher EducationGil Rogers
CPC, CPM, IP ... the list of acronyms goes on and on.
There are a lot of great tools for engaging various consumer audiences online. However, not all digital marketing tools work for student recruitment. In fact, pursuing some channels can quickly balloon your marketing budget with very little measurable ROI and impact.
This webinar will provide an overview of the best solutions for digital marketing ... specifically for higher education professionals seeking to connect with and engage prospective students for their institution.
2016 Social Media Strategies Higher Ed Summit KeynoteGil Rogers
It seems that every other week we hear about the new “latest and greatest” social networking site on the rise while another network is deemed “dead” in the mainstream media. Unfortunately, when it comes to student recruitment and marketing the narrative of the overall trends don’t always align with what works … particularly in a world of hyper sensitivity to over marketing and privacy.
This presentation will provide relevant data focused on how students actually use social media and digital platforms to find, evaluate, and engage with colleges and universities they are considering; while clearly defining the differences between a student’s “daily use” habits and their college search.
By the end of this session, attendees will:
-- Have a clear understanding of the role social media plays in the college search
-- Understand the value students place in anonymous review sites when selecting a college
-- See a clear way to integrate digital, social, and mobile tools into a realistic recruitment plan
Names + Digital = Reach + Engagement
As you begin to wrap up your fall travel season, it's important to buckle down on what works while shift resources away from lower performing investments.

New Methods of Finding Best-Fit Students and Increasing Response
It seems that the search process is never over. Once you bring in one class or fill your pipeline, you're on to the next.
What if there was a way to focus your search efforts on best-fit matches over simply a student's test score? Additionally, what if you could use real-time online behavior to find, engage, and re-engage students actively researching schools across the web?
This presentation will focus on how institutions can build their search pipeline by looking at students as more than a test score and date and moving their strategy to fit and instant engagement.

Recruiting in the Cloud: Optimizing Your Workflow & Recruiting SmarterGil Rogers
Today’s enrollment professionals are under constant scrutiny to hit ever tougher enrollment goals while “doing more with less”.
What if there were a way to save time and money by contacting interested in students in real-time at the height of their interest, while focusing follow-up communications on messages that matter?
Recent research by Chegg indicates that over 60% of students expect a response from admissions within 24 hours and over 9/10 students agree that this response should be personalized.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
