Aired June 10, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has driven traditional courses into distance delivery mode. Oddly enough, this transition to online learning spotlights the long-simmering question of whether delivery method should be an early fork in the prospective student journey.

Program pages drive recruitment; we all know that. The debate is whether online degree programs stand alone or whether they are presented under the umbrella of the degree, as a variant or one of several paths to that degree. You’ll learn about:  

    • What online information matters most to current online prospects vs. on-campus prospects
    • How you can deliver the best approach to content to deliver a better prospective student journey
    • Best practices for program pages

Join Joan Benson, Associate Vice President, Digital & Creative Strategy and Sandra Fancher, Chief Innovation Officer for this most important and timely webinar.
