The University of York, Middlesex University, and King’s College London have all signed deals with OnlineEd to create global online recruitment events to attract prospective students.

Six further universities are also planning similar conference-style events.

OnlineEd, based at Conyngham Hall business centre, Knaresborough, gives potential students and current offer holders anywhere in the world the opportunity to take part in live Q&A sessions with lecturers, course leaders and current students.

Meanwhile, participants can also take part in sample lectures and faculty head presentations delivered live in virtual lecture theatres, as well as review course and prospectus material, and apply for a place on a course.
