Our products and services
Whether you’re looking to promote a degree, diploma, microcredential or short course, Open Universities Australia’s (OUA) higher education marketplace will help you reach more students. OUA leverages our brand awareness across multiple marketing channels to connect with students across the country. What’s more, our flexible enrolment options mean we attract students who might not normally consider university.
Full service
OUA’s full service offering provides end-to-end student engagement and management. We look after:
- Sales and marketing.
- Recruitment and nurturing.
- Administration services, including application assessments and outcome processing.
- Student administrative services, such as enrolment and fee support.
You can choose to engage students into your Commonwealth supported places or to offer enrolments with government funding using OUA’s access to FEE-HELP.
Lead referral service
If you prefer a more hands-on option, choose our lead referral service. It takes advantage of our marketing channels to help you attract leads, which we then send on to you to action. OUA will support your university by:
- Connecting your brand with students through our marketing channels.
- Providing leverage qualification tools like “choose & explore” to guarantee quality student leads.
- Adding new programs to our marketplace quickly.
Reach students from around the country by letting people submit their information directly from your listings.
