Digital Marketing Options

We are pleased to provide UK institutions with several platforms to promote themselves through a variety of online channels. The majority of Korean students search information online before they decide on which university to apply, therefore, having constant exposure on popular websites is extrememly beneficial for student recruitment. As each institution has different goals and objectives there is no "one size fits all" package, rather institutions can choose from a range of platforms and content such as dedicated postings with photos, video clips and other interactive channels.
