Activity

Are you a leader or know of someone inspirational?  Share your story of how you help others - help students!  

What keeps an admissions professional engaged these days?  Without incentive compensation and with compliance breathing down their back....what is the motivation to stay in the profession?  

Curious on the average length of employment of an admissions representative in a single institution? What are some of the reasons for staying or moving on?

Thank you for sharing your approach Benjamin. Could you tell us more about how you transfer the call to someone else during an appointment?
It sounds like you have a good approach for your training plan with coaching, role playing and continuing education. What can you do to integrate team collaboration into your plan?

This is a terrific observation Helmi and provides you with an opportunity for your team. Since your team is thought oriented perhaps you can bring your observations to the team and allow them to think of potential long-term solutions for improving process. I suspect that having their buy-in on the process will help them take the right action moving forward. Thank you for your post.
This is an interesting approach Benjamin and could work if you have gathered enough information to know if saving money is a concern for them. I like the idea of utilizing what we already know about the student to think of what might interest them further - and offering information that may initiate interest during a call back. How do you think you might do that in future call backs?
I'm so glad you have a new tool to use with your students, Benjamin! Let us know how it works out for you.
It seems to be a common approach when representatives must answer their own calls during an appointment. How do the students sitting in your office typically respond to this approach?
Very interesting Stacey. Could you provide a specific example of how you illustrate goals in a way that can be verified in your role?
