Your digital
student recruitment strategy.

No media captures the essence of campus life quite like video. And no video portal can deliver your perfectly curated recruitment pitch quite like Panopto Connect. 

The average prospective student spends six to twelve months exploring higher education options. For institutions, this represents a brief yet critical window to make a lasting impression, share valuable information, and spark excitement about what their college or university has to offer. Recognizing the powerful role video can play in student recruitment, many institutions are elevating their strategies by integrating Panopto Connect into their competitive recruitment efforts.

Panopto Connect is a customizable, brandable, front-facing video portal that extends Panopto’s cloud-based video content management system (VCMS). Available as an add-on feature, this innovative platform enables institutions to create tailored video portals for different audience groups. Each portal delivers a personalized, secure viewing experience, featuring videos and playlists curated to meet the specific needs of its intended audience. For example, a student recruitment portal could showcase content such as virtual campus tours, highlights of campus life, introductions to specialty schools, student activities, parent resources, and more.

Did We Mention its Ad Free?

Sure, embedding video on a webpage has its advantages if you are looking for a YouTube-like experience. In exchange for the convenience, however, institutions may be giving away control, exposing their viewers to pre-roll video ads from one advertiser and “next up” video suggestions from another.

Maintain complete control of your audience’s viewer experience with Panopto Connect. The only videos shown are those you select from your Panopto video library. It’s your captive audience – captivate them with your content!
