In this episode of our continuing podcast series, ICEF’s Craig Riggs (editor of ICEF Monitor) and Martijn van de Veen (vice-president of business development) discuss the latest developments in our sector, including a renewed focus on skills-based hiring for employers and on students as social media ambassadors.

They are joined by Philippe Van Hecke – the director of International Business Development of R3 Education and an experienced recruitment executive for medical schools – for a feature discussion on international recruitment for medical and health science programmes.

The episode concludes with a closer look at another key growth market in international education: Ghana.
