Broadly speaking, our lives are being increasingly impacted by world events, climate change, and now AI. More specifically, new, more restrictive government policies have rocked our sector and are affecting international students\u2019 perceptions of study abroad destinations.<\/p>\n<p>It was natural for us to go through a period of shock when the various government announcements came through over the past few months \u2013 the cap in Canada, the extreme tightening of the immigration system in Australia, and the termination of most international students\u2019 rights to bring dependants with them in the UK. Hundreds and hundreds of institutions and agents have been affected, and thousands of prospective students are having their visas rejected or rethinking their study plans \u2013 or both.<\/p>\n<p>But the shock needs to give way to strategic thinking. It isn\u2019t time to hunker down and wait it out. It\u2019s time to acknowledge that the operating environment has changed\u2014whether we like it or not\u2014and realize that there are opportunities as well as challenges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This session will cover the following relevant themes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Refining your branding and positioning. What do you do best, how is it different and compelling, and how well are you communicating your strengths?<\/li>\n<li>Strengthening your admissions and recruiting functions and the coordination between all team members and systems. This is a time for efficiency, clear expectations, and effective processes.<\/li>\n<li>Taking on more responsibility as an institution to boost visa approvals.<\/li>\n<li>Providing superior support to prospective students and agents in terms of what they need to do to apply, meet deadlines, increase the likelihood of approval, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Rolling out your welcome mat to prospective students better than ever and supporting your current students in every aspect of their life<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"divider divider1\" style='margin:60px 0 60px 0 !important;'><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>Presenters<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row class=\u00a0\u00bbfacilitator-row\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;]<div class=\"single_image wpb_content_element align-left  image_box_border  \" data-animation=\"none\" data-delay=\"0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cbie.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Clark-Hortsing.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large\" alt=\"\" title=\"Clark-Hortsing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbie.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Clark-Hortsing.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cbie.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Clark-Hortsing-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb3\/4&Prime;][vc_column_text]<strong>Clark Hortsing <\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<strong>Vice President, Strategic Partnerships<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<strong>guard.me International Insurance<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]With almost 30 years in international education I have seen the sector grow and develop.
