The Reality
Students are very tech-savvy nowadays and can find schools around the world easily. Often, however, they cannot decide which the most suitable for them. In turn, Canadian institutions have been very active in promoting their programs overseas and often the Canadian government assists them in the process. But, there are vast pockets of people who do not have access to Canadian higher education other than through agents.
The Problem
A few rotten Agents created a problem for the whole barrel. There are more legitimate agents than the other kind, but regardless, the damage has been done.
The Solution
We work only with agents who are tried and true.
- Agents will have to complete a rigourous application process. References will be checked and a notarized commitment made.
- New Agents who are committed to the International Student sector but do not have references would qualify if they take a classroom / online course run by AlphaBeta Consultants, a specialist in international student recruitment in 5 different regions, with scores of successful applications.
Mississauga-based AlphaBeta Consultants is a partner of Can-Education Consortium, and they will conduct physical course in the Mississauga, and for those outside the city the course will be available online.
The curriculum for the Recruiting Agent Course comprises:
- Introduction to basic student recruitment concepts
- Establishing the relationship between you, the Recruiter, and Education Institution and Clients
