The practice of paying special commission rates to specific agents is often seen in the context of international student recruitment. These agents may have established relationships with students and families in their home countries, as well as knowledge of the local education systems and culture, which can be valuable for recruiting international students.

Course pricing can prove to be a headache for several schools especially when (as is the case with a lot of education providers) the price changes according to how many weeks a student books. As usual, Intrinsiq comes to your rescue in this aspect too and has features that help you save an incredible amount of time (and energy).

Throughout this past year we’ve looked at various aspects of the Intrinsiq system and how these work. As a last article for this year we are going to walk you through all the different blog posts we’ve had and remind you of what Intrinsiq can do.

The Teacher Allocator is a very useful classroom management tool within the Intrinsiq System that schools absolutely love because it enables them to set up their classes and carry out their academic forecasting more efficiently.

‘Family pay’ is that part of the Intrinsiq system that enables schools to stay on top of their payments to service providers, in this case, host families. Needless to say, having an automated system do this for you, ensures that you pay everyone on time without missing any deadlines and end up spending hours on the phone with angry families who are still waiting to be paid.

One of the most complex areas for schools to deal with, especially when they have long-stay students, is student holidays. Sometimes schools take notes on paper, or save it in calendars, but when you are saving information in other places, i.e. not on the system itself, the likelihood is that information will get lost. Intrinsiq allows schools to store all kinds of student information, including holiday entries, within the system itself, so that you don’t have to worry about forgetting!

We always speak of how Intrinsiq can help you run your school more efficiently, and this is mainly done thanks to the system’s communication channel. Basically, instead of having to type in your email, prepare a document you need attached complete with student details etc and then send it, Intrinsiq can do it at the click of a button.

In previous articles we’ve often spoken to you about the efficiency of the Intrinsiq Diary-like system for entering student records and student correspondence. And we cannot stress it enough! The Diary system that Intrinsiq offers is one of the software’s strongest points, especially if you are running a busy school, or a school which is planning to get busy in the coming months.
