(ThyBlackMan.com) The National Council for Marketing and Public Relations (NCMPR) awarded the marketing department at Northeastern Technical College (NETC) three Silver Medallion Awards. NCMPR Medallion Awards recognize outstanding achievement in design and communication at community and technical colleges. The regional competition is exclusive to marketing and public relations professionals at two-year colleges.
NETC was awarded a Silver Medallion in the video short category for its music video, “It’s FASFA Time Pell Yeah.” NETC’s 50th Anniversary commemorative window display, located downtown Cheraw, received a Silver Medallion in the Interior Signage/Display category. NETC’s strategic placement of a QR code in a slick folder earned them a silver medallion in the Print category.
“This was my first time submitting for a Medallion Award, and I am excited our department placed in multiple categories,” said David Spencer, NETC Public Relations Specialist. “We strive to be innovative in our marketing approach, and the recognition motivates us to push ourselves creatively.”
NCMPR presented the awards virtually and streamed the ceremony on Facebook.
