Advance HE will be delivering a series of webinars for our partners to provide insights and guidance with a key strategic challenge and opportunity: improving their reputational profile.

For a higher education institution (HEI), a good reputation, real or perceived, can enable it to gain a competitive advantage both domestically and internationally. Institutions are frequently differentiated based on their overall reputation but, often, by their specific strengths and specialisms. Institutional reputational profile can be based on a number of criteria such as academic reputation, student satisfaction and location.

During the webinar series, we will hear from those who have achieved recent success with improving their reputational profile, including through but not limited to, the Times Higher Education and QS World Rankings. We will provide you with free useful tools and resources, as well as ways in which you can engage with Advance HE.

Becky Smith, Advance HE Global Associate discusses the importance of building your institution’s reputational profile along with examples from across South East Asia and the Middle East.
