MARKET TREND
 Word of mouth and agent-driven market (80% of students use agents)
 Lower revenues for agents -> fewer agencies committed to Canadian
market: 30 agencies in Hanoi and 40 agencies in Hochiminh City
 Increased awareness and interest in Canada
 Students dream of the USA as a destination of study
 Students prefer big cities and where their relatives, friends live
 “Scholarship marketing” approach strongly engaged by competitors
and proved effective
 Alumni networks effectively engaged by competitors
 Digital marketing is an effective marketing channel to students (social
media, e-newspaper, internet)
Reasons to study abroad
 Education is one of the top investment priorities of parents
 Limits in quality/capacity of secondary and postsecondary education
 Mismatch between local graduates’ skills and employers’
requirements (English and IT)
 Two years of mandatory military period when sons turn 18
years old
 12th grade considered as waste of time for those planning
to abroad
