ICEF Podcast: How are schools and agents adapting to rising visa rejection rates?
Listen in as ICEF’s Craig Riggs and Martijn van de Veen recap some recent industry developments, including a shift to a more strategic approach to student recruitment and a renewed call for diversity in foreign enrolments.
This month's episode puts the focus on rising visa rejection rates in a number of major study destinations, a pattern that is having a major impact not just on the students but equally on the schools and agencies handling their recruitment.
Joining our hosts to explore this important issue are Michal Sestak, Managing Director of AustraliaOnline and Shawn Silverstone, Director of International Marketing and Recruitment with the Coquitlam School District.
We conclude with a closer look at East Africa as the latest stop for our “Keys to the Market” segment.
