Marketing opportunities within events

Conferences

UCAS has a well-established reputation for producing first-class conferences that hold a firm foundation within the education calendar.

Aimed at higher education professionals, teachers and careers advisers within schools and colleges, and those involved in admissions in higher education institutions; UCAS events provide impartial, intelligent and practical guidance from high-level speakers, aiding the progression of students through the application process into higher education and beyond.

Conventions

Face-to-face contact with 250,000 16- and 17-year-olds

UCAS Media runs a series of higher education conventions throughout the UK, providing a unique opportunity for 16- and 17-year-old students to meet face-to-face with universities and colleges, professional bodies, careers guidance organisations and student-facing brands.

A wide range of organisations wanting to present their products and services to those interested in going into higher education use the events. Along with universities and colleges, exhibitors include careers advice organisations, gap year organisations, student support services, professional bodies, student finance advisers and commercial companies.

The events take place between March and September each year and offer exhibitors and sponsors an unrivalled platform to engage with the target audience in a face-to-face environment. From stand presence and pre-event marketing through to inserts in 'show bags', the events can help reach this audience in a fast, efficient and effective way.
