Edvisor is delighted to announce its partnership with AREA, the Association of Russian Educational Advisors.

Following on from several Edvisor/AREA meetings and after the first AREA member (Educational World agency) joined by Edvisor in November 2020, the new partnership aims to tighten the bonds between both parties and always represent the best interests of the association's member agencies. 

Through Edvisor’s industry-leading technology, AREA agencies will continue to optimise their recruitment operations and collaborations with educators and service providers. AREA agencies will also have access to exclusive and real-time data reports on the latest trends in the Russian market through regular webinars held by the Edvisor team in Russia. 

Speaking on the partnership, Yulia Sumatokhina, Director of AREA and Educational World agency:

“Edvisor for Agents has everything an agent needs - schools/programmes info, schools' updated prices, and current promotions, beautiful quotes for our students, the possibility to send applications directly to the schools, an integrated CRM system and many additional useful features. Daily work in Edvisor helps us to save time and energy thereby increasing our sales. Constant development and improvement of the platform give us confidence that all our feedback is always heard. Hopefully, the current global situation will get better in the near future so we will be able to realise the full potential that Edvisor’s technology can bring to our operations.” 

Nelia Halynska, Edvisor’s Customer Success Specialist for CIS, outlined the need to work together in order to overcome the considerable challenges Russian agencies are facing and cited this as a key motivation behind the partnership:

“With the challenges our industry is facing, the partnering of AREA and Edvisor represents a shared understanding and commitment to supporting agencies and their interests. The Russian market is adapting to the unprecedented challenges of the pandemic, and we are confident that Edvisor’s technology can provide efficient management and recruitment solutions for AREA members. Moving forward, we’re looking forward to helping AREA expand the scope of their operation with new partnerships with international educators and competitive service provider agreements.”
