Sharing Somerset's Successes

The honourable reputation Somerset College has built, results in a high level of interest and makes our Admissions a thriving department. Despite the growing number of families seeking enrolment the team receiving applications work hard to prove why Somerset is a student's best choice.

For most families, their first point of contact with the College is through our Admissions Department and more often our Registrar, Louise Woods. This week, Louise is visiting New Zealand on a self-funded trip, sharing her knowledge in enrolments - gained from her career in marketing and long time employment in administration at the College - at the international conference for Educate Plus. Louise first presented earlier in the year in Brisbane and was so well received, she was invited to speak in New Zealand.

"It was extremely rewarding to be able to combine my knowledge of sales and marketing with Admissions and to share this at the International Conference," says Louise.

Educate Plus provides a network for professionals in education working in Admissions, Alumni and Community Relations, Fundraising, Marketing and Communication. Our Dean of Admissions, John Bacon has a strong interest with the group, holding a position on its board.
