Marketing the Value of Higher Education: The Role of Data in Enrollment Marketing at NIU

For decades the role of enrollment marketing in Higher Education has been to demonstrate the unique value of their academic programs, promote their unique student experience, and tell the unique story of their institution. But with the rising costs of higher education, many prospective college students and their families are not simply considering which college has the best value, but they’re now considering if any college is worth attending. This means that enrollment marketing professionals have the added responsibility of communicating the value of higher education as a whole, not just the unique value of their own institution. We sat down with Sol Jensen, Vice President for Enrollment Management Marketing and Communications at Northern Illinois University, to discuss this changing landscape and the critical role that graduate outcomes data plays in navigating it. In this episode, we discuss:  * The changing landscape of enrollment management marketing and communications * The value of career outcomes in enrollment management and marketing and communications * How NIU has leveraged their Steppingblocks outcomes data to tell the story of NIU career outcomes and the value of an NIU degree * How colleges and universities can explore, prioritize, and showcase their graduate outcomes data to a multitude of audiences * The power of sharing access to graduate outcomes data across campus  For more on how you can leverage graduate outcomes data for Enrollment Management and Marketing and Communications, check out these resources from Steppingblocks:  eBook: Communicating the Value of Higher Education  [https://resources.steppingblocks.com/communicating-value] Handout: Best Practices for Leveraging Outcomes Data in Enrollment Marketing  [https://resources.steppingblocks.com/hubfs/Tell%20Your%20Story%20Best%20Practices%20for%20Leveraging%20Outcomes%20Data%20in%20Enrollment%20Marketing.pdf] Handout: Maximizing Graduate Insights for Admissions & Marketing [https://resources.steppingblocks.com/hubfs/Steppingblocks%20-%20Maximizing%20Graduate%20Insights%20for%20Admissions%20%26%20Marketing.pdf] Case Study: Leveraging Career Outcomes Data for Strategic Enrollment Marketing Planning at Northern Illinois University [/case-studies-and-interviews/niu-enrollment]

episode Understanding Essential Skills artwork

Understanding Essential Skills

Most people have heard of “hard” or “technical” skills and their alleged opposite, “soft” skills. However, many career development practitioners and employers are shifting the focus to “essential” skills. In this age of rapidly evolving technology, employers want college graduates who have essential skills that can serve as a foundation for the makings of a great employee. These skills span industries and academic disciplines, and can help students future-proof their career success. Check out our conversation all about the critical need for essential skills with Suzanne Helbig, Associate Vice Provost, Division of Career Pathways at University of California, Irvine. In this conversation, we talk about:  * The meaning and value of essential skills * Common misconceptions about essential skills * How colleges and universities can help their students develop and articulate their essential skills * Why essential skills matter to employers * How data informs the narratives around essential skills

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
