The Growing Importance of Student Recruitment Webinars in 2015

by Carolina Vargas

Last year the growth of student recruitment webinars was more than evident. A large numberย of successful webinars were organised by universities with the main purpose of recruiting students. In 2015 universities such as HULT International Business School, University of Buckingham, Dalarna University and National University of Singapore have included this good practice into their marketing planning and there is no wonder why!

An increasing popularity in Europe and the rest of the worldย 

Student recruitment webinars are growing in popularity in Europe and the rest of the world, they have quickly become a part of the marketing culture of some universities and business schools worldwide. Admission officers are increasingly relying and believing in the effectiveness of this online method. Webinars have been used in Europe, North America, Asia, Africa and South America with the purpose of recruiting students for a number of years now.

A meaningful interaction for students

Webinars are growing because students are looking to receive more than a cold touch from universities, theyโ€™re looking primarily for a meaningful interaction. Through these online open days admission officers are building a connection with international students by giving them clear directions and motivations to enroll.

Students often see these student recruitment webinars as a way to solve their doubts about the school and the programme. For example, when a student needs a strong reason to choose a school rather than another one and both offer the same programme in the same country, what would you do in order to convince them to choose yours?

Effectiveness + Great ROI for Universities

In 2015 the webinar method, which generally takes about 8 weeks, has helped educational institutions in an efficient, cost effective and time saving way, according to many testimonials and reviews.ย Through webinars, schools are generating a lot of brand awareness and qualified leads for their 2015/2016 programmes.

Student recruitment methods are always going to be evolving. This year webinars have clearly been put on the map and shown that, when it comes to finding students, webinars can reach further, save you more time, allow you to interact more and provide for a better ROI than most if not all other recruitment methods.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you?
