Struggling to cut through the noise?
Are you finding it difficult to engage with the students you serve? As a student, you know that your peers are likely overwhelmed by messages and their many priorities. That often leads to them not taking advantage of the activities and opportunities with the Students’ Union, including connecting with peers, or participating in events that shape their experience.
CampusGroups can help you take your strategies to the next level with centralised communications, personalised content, easy membership management, and a unified digital space where every student can see what matters to them - from campaigns to clubs to peer support.
Boost awareness and reach every student with the right message
Ensuring students know who you are, what you do, or how to get involved can be challenging. CampusGroups gives your team the tools to promote Students’ Union services and campaigns effectively, highlight elected officers and their goals, and increase student interaction and participation with the union year after year.
Simplify communication with targeted emails, push notifications, and in-app messages that can be sent to different student groups. Whether you’re promoting events, sharing resources, or delivering important updates, you can reach students where they are and keep everything on brand.
Design professional-looking emails using the platform’s drag-and-drop builder, embedding smart widgets to pull in dynamic content from the platform. Easily segment your audience to deliver personalised messages at the right time- whether by email or push notification. Track performance with real-time analytics, identify what’s working, and re-engage students who haven’t opened your messages.
Encourage student involvement and build community
CampusGroups encourages students to collaborate and engage through a single platform where they can discover events, clubs and societies, peer mentoring tools, and much more. Students can build their profiles, explore interest-based groups, and use searchable directories to connect with peers, staff, and academic reps.
Help students feel welcome from day one with dedicated hubs for key moments like Welcome Week. The mobile app lets students browse societies and clubs, register for events, and buy tickets from their personalised dashboard. Real-time chat messaging enables seamless communication with classmates, friends, and event organisers, making it easy to network and build their community.
Use the campus-wide feed to share updates and encourage conversation across groups, and track student engagement with QR code check-ins, student ID swipes, or in-app self check-in. With CampusGroups, you can encourage students to collaborate, engage, and form lasting connections.
Make every voice count
You’re constantly collecting data, but it’s not always easy to analyse or understand what challenges students currently have. CampusGroups makes it easy to capture student feedback via surveys, forms, and polls, with the ability to also host online elections.
Use simple, customizable templates to build and share feedback tools across your community. Invite participation via email, set access levels by group or role, and track responses in real time. Whether you’re running union elections, gathering feedback on services, or supporting campaigns, it’s all managed in one platform.
With clearer insight into student experiences, you can take proactive steps to support your community and ensure every voice is heard.
Empower student leaders, clubs, and societies
Managing student societies and clubs can be overwhelming without the right tools. CampusGroups gives student leaders everything they need to run groups efficiently, from growing membership to planning events and communicating with their community.
Student leaders can manage memberships, room reservations, submit funding applications, plan trips, track budgets, and even collect payments or donations through secure online tools. With a full dashboard and custom admin permissions, students gain hands-on leadership experience while unions maintain visibility and oversight across all groups.
Build and maintain professional websites for your union, and empower your groups to do the same using a simple, no-code web editor. Smart widgets pull in upcoming events, meetings, and announcements automatically, so pages stay up to date without the hassle. Student leaders can sell merchandise or other items online while tracking inventory, and event organisers can manage logistics, offer tiered registration and ticket options, and generate shareable event pages, making it easy to keep students engaged and informed.
Optimise operations at your Students’ Union
With CampusGroups, your team can easily track student and associate memberships, monitor engagement, and maintain accurate, up-to-date records across clubs and societies. Sell items and manage inventory in one place, and automate everyday tasks with dynamic workflows that route forms, event and budget approvals, and group registrations to the right staff members.
Guide student leaders with customised to-do lists and onboarding pathways that walk them through finance, governance, training, and committee handovers. Offer bookable meeting slots using integrations with Google Calendar and Outlook 365 - ideal for advising, mentoring, or training. Combined with detailed engagement insights and attendance tracking, these tools help your Union run more efficiently - so you can focus on what matters most.
Support employability and volunteering
Help students become more employable through different opportunities within your Students’ Union. CampusGroups allows students to log volunteer hours, link skills to each role, and build a personal record of involvement. Students can view and export a summary of their activities - ideal for job applications and interviews - and discover new opportunities to strengthen skills they’ve yet to develop.
With a Co-Curricular Transcript, students can easily capture and share experiences such as event attendance, club memberships, leadership roles, and service hours. Downloadable and shareable, this transcript helps students demonstrate their growth and stand out to future employers.
Support career development by connecting students with recruiters and job opportunities, host virtual career fairs, and provide access to a searchable directory of hiring companies to help students take the next step in their career journey.
