Improve College Access for Underserved & Minoritized Students & Families – October 29, 2020
|
| Date & Time |
| Thursday, October 29, 2020 • 2:00 – 3:30 pm ET |
| Overview |
Avoid Accidental Alienation through Mis-messaging and Missed Opportunities
Students don’t always fall through the cracks… sometimes, they are pushed, accidentally, through mis-messaging and missed opportunities. The way we talk to students, especially underserved and minoritized students and families can make or break their postsecondary aspirations and potential. Is your staff intentionally driving interest, or accidentally creating resistance? How can you know for certain that their words are proactively supporting college access in all communities?
Words matter. In the vast majority of recruitment situations, underserved and/or minoritized students will be part of the audience. That said, college access should be at the forefront of all enrollment messaging.
Join us for an interactive webinar on October 29, 2020 when our expert presenter — Rachel Fried, a Partner with the College Access Strategies/Public School Initiative — will offer crucial, actionable takeaways on why effective pipeline development in underserved and minoritized communities requires significant commitment to dynamic relationship-building. Fried will discuss how integrating strategic college access messages into regular recruitment as one of the least expensive, most impactful ways to demonstrate commitment to underserved and underrepresented communities.
Even when messaging with good intentions, sometimes recruiters miss the mark. And if they miss the mark, they risk alienating the very students that institutions are trying to recruit. You’ll be able to develop comprehensive strategies, so the entire recruitment team understands how to message effectively to promote college access for all students.
Registration: $399*
