Interactive Webinar: Ardeo & NACCAP Discuss Leadership and Enrollment

Join NACCAP and Ardeo Education Solutions for an interactive discussion on how enrollment leaders are navigating the uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Explore strategies Ardeo clients and fellow NACCAP institutions are using to effectively lead and increase yield during this time of change.

Our May 21 NACCAP and Ardeo Webinar covered:

• Get answers to questions such as “How can chief enrollment officers and others provide effective leadership during this time of change?” and “What changes are others making to mitigate melt and meet yield goals?”
• Share insights and strategies with fellow NACCAP institutions.
• Learn about top-of-mind issues other enrollment leaders are tackling, recently sourced from two Ardeo Virtual Client Discussions.
• At the end of the discussion, explore how a loan repayment assistance program can boost your yield by directly addressing your prospects’ financial concerns – concerns that may be exacerbated by the current economic environment.
