About the Reputation Academy
High-level training for Communications, Marketing, and International staff in global universities.
The World 100 Reputation Academy is an intensive practical reputation training programme that has helped over 100 people improve their knowledge around university reputation.
Aimed at professional communications, marketing, and international staff in international World 100 universities, with pre-director or first-director level experience, World 100 Reputation Academies build practical and strategic skills that can be applied to support reputation, strengthen recruitment and deepen brand distinction.
The three-day Academy includes small classes providing an intensive and focused experience, while group project work supports networking and interactive learning.
The academy operates in both a face-to-face format and an online format. We will be running a mix of both throughout 2023.
