Why enter the awards?
Alma Aganovic, South & City College Birmingham, said:
“We were delighted to win the Gold award for the outstanding marketing team. It has given the team a much needed boost of confidence and acknowledgement for their hard work. It has also helped the team raise their profile and reputation internally within the College.”
Kristian Bentham The Manchester College, said:
“Our Gold award for Digital & Social Media campaign was a great achievement for us. To be recognised by college peers and industry leaders in the field was incredibly valuable to us in demonstrating we were on the right track and that all our hard work had been worthwhile. Now that we have a proven record of success, we have renewed confidence and external validation to take new ideas to college teams.”
