As reputation continues to become a recognised strategic priority for global universities, the importance of finding effective ways to measure perceptions of key stakeholder groups grows. This webinar will explore some of the latest trends in the measurement of reputation, with World 100 member universities sharing their experiences.

As the webinar will include member experiences of measuring reputation we wanted to make sure all of our members had the opportunity to get involved. We’re therefore running two webinars, giving you the chance to join regardless of location.

The session for members in the UK, Europe, or the Americas will take place on 29 March 2023 at 1500 BST / 1000 EDT / 1600 CEST. Our guest speakers for this session will be Andy Simmons, Head of Marketing, The University of Manchester & Ellie Cook, Portfolio Marketing Manager (International Reputation), University of Bristol.

The session for members in Asia and the Pacific has been postponed, we will share details of the new time and date very soon. Our guest speaker for this session will be Tina Imig, Head of Brand and Strategic Projects, University of Newcastle.
