Webinar takeaways
Prior to the pandemic, the UK, Canada, and Australia have enjoyed continued growth, while the US faced a decline, losing almost 100,000 students between 2017/18 and 2021/22. In the coming years, the foundation for UG student recruitment is strong; however, the pool of markets driving growth for institutions is changing profoundly and new battle grounds for market share are emerging.
Looking ahead, BONARD highlighted the most promising markets for 2024, emphasizing the importance of strategic planning, awareness of market dynamics, in-field experience, benchmarking against competitors, and having contingencies in place.
