As the industry flagship event, the conference caters to CEOs, social media managers, communications officers, digital marketing specialists, public relations experts, engagement officers, admissions personnel and event coordinators from major universities across the globe.

With the unlimited opportunity present today, universities and colleges need to leverage cutting-edge social media strategies more than ever. Consequently, University administrations are reshaping their organizational capacities to not only accommodate but prioritize their social media outreach in light of the vastly competitive landscape, its continuously evolving dynamics, and the heightened demand for online learning modes.
At the SMSSHE, attendees will learn to develop and implement successful social media strategies and assess and audit ongoing social media initiatives by drawing on the latest best practices, stakeholder feedback, and peer-to-peer learning. The event will help participants revitalize brand strategy frameworks that enable creativity fuelled ecosystems to thrive, cultivate expertise in the latest technological tools to drive social media transformation at their respective home institutions, and fine-tune and upgrade existing skill sets.
The SMSSHE conference is the only event where consumer brand case studies are contextualized in higher education.
Each day will feature concise and in-depth sessions by industry veterans, panel discussions, and 15-minute Thought Leader Spotlight sessions dedicated to focusing on higher education social media marketing for colleges and universities. Speaker presentations will explore a multitude of aspects and include Giving Your Content New Life: Maximizing the Life of Your Content on Social Media Through Repurposing by Chelsey Bentley Holts, director of social media, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Reaching Digital Natives: How Higher Ed Institutions Can Create Meaningful Youth Engagement by Matt Diteljan, CEO, co-founder, Glacier; How Social Media Can Amplify Your Higher Education Brand delivered by Kevin Tyler, account director, SimpsonScarborough; Digging Into Metrics & Analytics as a Team of One with Joel Villarini Falbe, director of social media, Florida International University; among others.
