Summary

We all know that successful admissions and recruitment teams are what makes a great university tick. A lot of your work is unseen by the powers that be – until something goes wrong, and you are thrust into the limelight! Planning for and dealing with a crisis is an integral part of preparing and managing a successful team. 99% of the time everything goes to plan, but are you prepared for that 1%?

Two colleagues will share their experiences of when a crisis hit them, how they managed, and what they learnt from the experience. This will be followed by a workshop activity looking at your crisis management plans, and sharing experiences and best practice with colleagues.

Learning outcomes:

  • Learn about how two providers dealt with a crisis. 
  • Examine your own crisis management preparations. 
  • Share experiences and best practice with colleagues to improve your own preparations.
