The IC Global Academy

The workshop draws on recent research into UK Higher Education Institutions’ (HEIs’) internationalisation and global engagement strategies in order to stimulate and provide guidance in the creation and/or enhancement of such strategies at participants' institutions.

This workshop enables participants to explore the similar and different cultures, practices and expectations that are apparent in three key countries: Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia. Participants gain valuable information from the facilitators on how to navigate cultural barriers; changes to partnerships and recruitment post-COVID; the key decision making factors for students; and the best tools when developing institutional relationships which can result in impactful recruitment and partnerships. The workshop also provides participants with an opportunity to self-evaluate their own practices when considering the wider themes around customs and practices, stereotyping, body language and written/oral communication.

This workshop is designed to help participants build confidence in their ability to locate, analyse and persuade using international education data. Workshop participants can gain hands-on experience with real world problems and datasets, and be guided through advanced presentation techniques that helped their ideas stand out in meetings.
