  • Marketing Live - Breaking Silos in Higher Ed

    Marketing Live - Breaking Silos in Higher Ed
    Nov 30 2017
    Silos in higher education aren't limited to the departments within your immediate structure. Silos exist across campus. You see them among academic units, athletics, and business operations. More appear in foundations and student support services. Higher ed builds silos to keep focus in one space. Too often this practice ignores interdisciplinary opportunities. The result: silos are not aligned with university priorities. A perfect storm of change is forcing us to break down these silos – technology, the great recession, new demands for transparency, accountability, and cooperation from students and leadership. Tune in to this episode of Marketing Live and learn how to break down silos using technology. We'll also discuss creating intentional connections with staff members. Some tactics include special projects, staff development, and internal hiring processes.

  • Admissions Live - Looking at Prospective Adult Learners Through a New Lens

    Admissions Live - Looking at Prospective Adult Learners Through a New Lens
    Nov 20 2017
    We hear a lot these days about enrollment "fit" - the need for prospective students and schools to be closely aligned in order to ensure high retention and graduation rates. A laudable cause, no doubt, when it comes to the "traditional" student: those first-time, full time enrollees entering college right out of high school. Eduventures' recent Prospective Student Mindsets provides invaluable insights into understanding these students. But can "fit" be applied to the ubiquitous adult learner? While schools have learned much about the range and variety of traditional learners, the same cannot be said for older, working students, who are subject to a web of economic conditions, prior educational experiences, and the demands of work and family. This episode will provide some advance highlights of upcoming research showcasing the 10 distinct mindsets among adults seeking certificates or non-credit programming, undergraduate degrees, and graduate degrees.
