Connecting with your prospective students will continue to be essential to ensuring your institution thrives. Drawing upon experiences working with institutions around the US we will share insight into how Universities can ensure their digital interactions with prospective students are as impactful as possible. Geoff and Christian will take a deep dive into insights from the 10 million+ messages shared on our platform to look at conversational trends, and showcase how these insights have helped Cornell Tech tailor their communications and events effectively.

 They’ll also discuss how you can ensure that you remain adaptive and flexible with recruitment initiatives throughout 2021, ensuring that you aren’t just reactive but strategic in the work that you do.
