"The Ultimate Guide to Explain Digital to your Colleagues"

Harvard Law defines strategic risk management as the process of identifying, assessing and managing the risk in an organization's business strategy -- including taking swift action when risk is actually realized. So what does that mean for us, as international student recruiters and international enrollment managers, given the deep challenges before us? (See the-american-interest.com for a brief reminder of those challenges.)

Stay tuned, as we explore this dynamic approach over the next few months. For a sneak peek, contact Cheryl DarrupBoychuck or Pamela Barrett.

Cross Promotions - Vericant: Verified Video Interviews

Vericant is a team of China experts who are transforming admissions and assessment. They believe there is no substitute for a face-to-face interview with each applicant; their goal is to help admissions offices to better evaluate each of their applicants regardless of distance or timezone.

Unlike agents and consultants, Vericant does not help students to apply to schools, nor do they help schools recruit students. Instead, the company provides a platform for admission officers to evaluate spoken English ability and non-cognitive skills. Learn more at Vericant.com or contact info@vericant.com
