Today’s students expect fast, personalized support—and AI agents are how you deliver it. With limited staff and rising expectations, the Digital Workforce bridges the gap, providing proactive, scalable engagement at every stage of the student journey.
At the 2025 Engage Summit, you’ll discover how to activate these AI-powered teammates—from enrollment to alumni engagement—to drive connection, boost retention, and reimagine what’s possible in higher ed.
AI doesn’t replace what you do—it scales it. Imagine your best outreach, your most thoughtful support, your most strategic campaigns—now multiplied by a thousand.
With AI agents working alongside your team, you’ll automate the busywork, personalize every interaction, and engage students with precision and speed. The result? A smarter, faster, more human institution that meets every student where they are.
Big Ideas. Bold Voices. Real Impact.
From AI pioneers to higher ed changemakers, our Engage Summit 2025 keynotes bring the vision and strategy to help you lead confidently in the age of AI. Get ready for insights that push boundaries—and power action.
