Background
NauMai NZ (‘Nau mai’, the Māori phrase meaning invitation and welcome) was launched in May 2019, a global site built to support New Zealand international students’ well-being and provide useful information. Today, it continues to support New Zealand international students by acting as a key source of timely and accurate information during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Challenge
Currently, 36% of New Zealand’s international student population is comprised of Chinese international students, studying both in the country and in China with New Zealand providers. Since the launch of NauMai NZ, the digital platform has had more than 9,000 students sign ups, but analysis of usage over the past 12 months revealed that there is opportunity to increase their engagement through a new solution. ENZ required a digital platform to engage with Chinese students groups and identified that WeChat was an appropriate tool that these students prefer to interact with.
Solution
As ENZ has been constantly building its WeChat ecosystem, incl. ENZ WeChat OA with My StudyNZ targeting prospective students, it was a no brainer to add NauMai NZ into the WeChat ecosystem. UMS was tasked to design a WeChat Mini Program which was set to achieve five key modules – user profile, short videos & live-streaming, event reminder, and most importantly, the information centre.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
-
Student Registration Module: Students are asked about their identity, their current attained level of study, the city they are from, their gender, and their name. After registration, a personal profile is created for them to save any content they like and to check their latest subscriptions that they have signed-up to on the platform.
-
Live-Streaming Module: This module allows ENZ to host streamed events that are promoted in the Mini Program prior to the event. Students can pre-subscribe to an event through a simple click and be informed just before it starts through a push notification. In the live-stream, students are able to like content, publish comments, and share the live-stream to any of their WeChat friends, in groups, and in their Moments.
-
Push Notification: An important feature UMS created to help notify subscribers of an upcoming event. The notification will appear in the student’s WeChat message column to provide a reminder of a recent event they signed-up to. Users can easily enter the live stream by simply clicking on the reminder. The reminder can be set to any time or date based on requirements.
