Join Nannette Ripmeester (Regional Director Surveys – Europe and N. America) and Dr Douglas Proctor (York University, Canada) for the webinar about “Global by Design: International Student Experience, AI, and the Future of Canadian Higher Education.” on June 4th, 2026 at 15.00PM – 15.45PM (21.00PM – 21.45PM CEST).
This webinar will explore the evolving Canadian higher education landscape through the lens of global student voice and institutional strategy. Drawing on early insights from the forthcoming 2026 Global Student Experience report, powered by data from the International Student Barometer (ISB), Nannette will highlight emerging patterns in international students’ expectations, engagement, wellbeing, and value perceptions – and what these mean for Canadian institutions competing in an increasingly complex global market.
The session will also offer a preview of findings from Etio’s upcoming NAFSA 2026 presentation, “How do students use AI? Findings from 100,000+ international students.” These insights shed light on how currently enrolled students are interacting with AI in their studies and career planning, how institutions can make informed, evidence based decisions about AI adoption, and what AI means for employability outcomes for a generation that is truly global by design.
Key Takeaways
This webinar is for leaders who want more than anecdotes, and who recognise that student voice, at scale, is essential for shaping the future of Canadian higher education. You can register here.
