STAMATS WEBINAR: MORE THAN AN AFTERTHOUGHT: INTENTIONAL STRATEGIES FOR ATTRACTING AND RETAINING ADULT STUDENTS

February 21, 2008 from 1:30 to 3:00 PM (Central Time)

Bob Sevier
Presented by Dr. Brenda Harms,
Client Consultant


Do your adult student offerings and marketing efforts feel like an afterthought?

47 percent of enrollees in U.S. higher education institutions can be classified as adult students, adult learners, or nontraditional students. Regardless of how you label this segment, never before have so many adult students been poised to explore? or re-explore? the offerings of higher education. Major life transitions, career advancement, and personal achievement represent only a few of the motivating factors fueling this adult student groundswell.

Is your institution confident it understands the nuanced differences, similarities, and most importantly—needs—of this student population? 

Effectively engaging adult students requires vastly different—and often more diverse—marketing strategies than most institutions currently employ. From how to present information on your Web site to how best to structure class schedules, attracting and retaining adult students requires a top to bottom review and assessment of your marketing and communication efforts. 

During this session Client Consultant Brenda Harms Ph.D. will help attendees:

  • Recognize the unique differences and similarities between adult and nontraditional student segments
  • Evaluate effective adult student enrollment marketing strategies
  • Understand how to serve the needs of adult students
  • Recognize when it’s time to act
  • Comprehend the rewards—including new revenue and donation streams—from serving this segment
  • Apply a systematic approach and best practices
  • Much more
