Modern communications for higher education

Power international student recruiting with multilingual support for chat

Universities can improve their international student recruiting experience with the ability to support live chat experiences in 22 different languages. Prospective international students can engage with your university contact centre agents using live chat in their preferred language, say Simplified Mandarin, while they conduct a live chat with a university’s contact centre agent who experiences the exchange in their preferred language.

With an easy to access, affordable technology like video communications, professors can expand beyond the physical limitations of the traditional classroom and offer their insights and instructional expertise to a much broader audience.
