In this episode of Edtech Connect, host Jeff Dillon sits down with Sana Remekie, CEO of Conscia and a pioneer in composable digital experiences, to explore how universities can break free from legacy systems and embrace AI-driven agility. From her roots in enterprise search architecture to building Conscia’s "DXGraph" for unified data, Sana reveals why higher ed must adopt omni-channel strategies—or risk becoming invisible to AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT.

Discover how digital experience orchestration bridges siloed CMS platforms, why personalization goes beyond "Hello, [Name]," and how agentic AI will redefine student interactions—both on and off your website

1. The Multi-to-Multi Problem: Universities juggle legacy systems, composable tools, and countless touchpoints—orchestration layers unify them without costly migrations.
2. AI’s Offsite Threat: If ChatGPT can’t crawl your structured content, prospective students may never find you.
3. Beyond the Website: Conversational interfaces (like onsite chatbots) are now mandatory—users expect ChatGPT-style interactions everywhere.
4. Personalization ≠ Just Names: Real-time intent detection (via LLMs) lets schools dynamically reshape content for admissions seekers, researchers, or donors.
5. Start Small, Abstract Legacy: Use batch data feeds to build APIs over clunky systems—no "boil the ocean" required.
6. Agentic AI is Non-Negotiable: Third-party AI (ChatGPT) and onsite chatbots will dominate how Gen Z engages with brands—including universities.

Listen now to future-proof your institution’s digital strategy—before AI reshapes the enrollment landscape.
