Empower Your Campus to Meet Your Enrollment Goals
Stronger enrollment funnels, higher conversion on lead generation, more impactful engagement, communicating with different sub-populations of students, higher yield rates, efficient cost-effective recruitment strategies, harnessing new/current technology, generating net tuition revenue, balancing budgets, the student on-boarding process, and hiring/developing staff.
All of these are objectives placed on current institutions and driven by enrollment offices. How can you possibly manage all of these goals in an increasing difficult higher education environment?
Find out at this interactive RNL Enrollment Workshop. Join us for the day as we share current benchmarking data and strategies that will empower and arm your campus with the tools needed to recruit, enroll, and retain your 2025 (and beyond) cohort of students. Campus colleagues will walk away with immediate, actionable strategies that can be taken back to campus to help meet current enrollment goals. The engaging sessions will promote sharing of best practices, innovation brainstorming, and valuable networking.
This RNL Workshop is co-sponsored by Allied Pixel and Halda.
