The growth of international education around the globe over the past twenty years has led to the professionalisation of the international schools admissions function. Today, the admissions function in a school can be captured by three core areas of activity: telling the story of the school, managing a set of processes, and connecting with people. Rooted in principles of design thinking, this highly interactive workshop will encourage participants to imagine the next future of international school admissions, the standards that will define this future, as well as the professional development that will be required in order to embrace this future with confidence.
