Ϲ Podcast: How is COVID-19 impacting student search and school selection?

Our new podcast series continues today with a special panel discussion exploring how the pandemic is affecting student search and school selection. Our host for the episode is Nick Stevenson, Ϲ’s business development manager for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

He is joined this week by an expert panel: Rachel Fletcher, CEO of UniQuest, Nick Golding, Director of Strategic Development with The Access Platform, and Jonah Duffin, Director of External Relations with IDP Connect. 

Each panelist offers a distinct perspective on student recruitment and each has access to considerable data and insights on student behaviour. The result is a lively and informative conversation about how the student journey is changing this year, and about the underlying demand trends for study abroad.
