January 25, 2024, 2:00 pm Webinar

CIC recently announced a Corporate Affiliate program to guarantee members useful, high-quality services aimed at addressing critical issues at a discount.

Informational Webinar

During this virtual conversation, Mainstay will present best practices for enrolling and retaining students with communication techniques and technology consistently proven to drive student action. The webinar will explore how, in partnership with hundreds of colleges and universities, Mainstay has created a communication strategy that addresses key persistence barriers and leverages technology to personalize the experience at scale. You will also learn how Mainstay has partnered with CIC to incorporate a decade of these collaborations with researchers and practitioners into a partnership designed to drive your institutional goals for enrollment and retention.

Webinar speakers will include Mainstay’s Julie Delich, vice president of content architecture and solutions; and John Maycock, chief partnerships officer. The webinar will also feature practical applications of Mainstay’s offerings from a CIC member institution.
