Consistent performance evaluation is essential for maintaining high standards in international student recruitment. However, our latest survey reveals that many universities are missing critical opportunities to support and optimise their agent partnerships. 76% of universities conduct only annual performance reviews, limiting opportunities for timely feedback and improvement. In contrast, just 6% of universities review agent performance monthly, another 6% conduct quarterly reviews, 6% opt for ad-hoc reviews, and 6% use other evaluation methods as needed. Relying primarily on annual reviews can delay the identification of issues and hinder the ability to provide agents with the support they need to meet recruitment goals. More frequent evaluations allow institutions to provide timely feedback, address challenges proactively, and adapt strategies in response to changing market demands. As global competition for students intensifies, universities need agile and proactive evaluation strategies to stay ahead.

Success in International Student Recruitment: Proven Strategies with Education Agents Want to boost your international student enrollments and achieve significant recruitment goals? Here are five key strategies I used in the past 24 months that have driven success: Build a High-Value Agent Network: Focus on identifying and partnering with top-performing education agents. While some may be challenging to secure, others will be open to collaboration. Prioritize by Enrollment Potential: Rank agents by their ability to bring in high numbers of quality students. Adjust your focus as you gather more insights. Target High-Impact Agents First: Start with agents who have the greatest potential. Consistent engagement with these partners can yield better results than multiple smaller partnerships. Replace Underperforming Agents: Continuously evaluate your agent network. Focus your efforts on those who consistently deliver results. Stay Disciplined and Persistent: Regular outreach and follow-up are key. Agents will reconsider their partner institutions, and your persistence will keep you top of mind. By following these steps, you'll build a strong network of education agents, driving substantial growth in international student enrollments.

The demand within the Student System Market has unexpectedly increased across the last four weeks and I for one have been incredibly busy, making a variety of seven placements in total for various University client's. (which is considered a lot in the recruitment world). Whether this was down to the end of the financial year and Universities having to spend last minute budgets I'm unsure. It seems to be a common theme that a lot of Universities seem to be feeling the impact this year of international students numbers, which is affecting ongoing/upcoming projects, as Universities are planning to strict budgets. Why am I telling you this I hear you ask? Well, given that a large percentage of Student System Consultants are now placed in contract positions, with limited availability out there, I would highly urge any of my clients to start planning any resource they may require for the remainder of the year, at least two months in advance. Especially with annual upgrades and clearing not far around the corner... Below are just some of the areas with I cover within various Student Systems such as SITS, Banner, Thesis and Technology One to name a few.
