Winner: Copy-writing course
2006-06-06

Ms Magdaleen Kruger, station manager of RSG, visited the University of the Free State's (UFS) Department of Afrikaans and Dutch, German and French to hand over the RSG Prize for copy-writing to Miss Nadia Fourie, a student at the UFS. Me Fourie was a final-year student in the programme Integrated Marketing Communication in 2005. The copy- writing course is compulsory for this qualification.

The copy-writing course is presented on behalf of the UFS Department of Communication and Information Studies by Dr Angelique van Niekerk, lecturer at the Department of Afrikaans and Dutch, German and French. RSG has been an external partner of the copy-writing course since 2005 and also serve on the judges’ panel of the Afrikaans radio advertisements made during this course.  The extension of the partnership between the UFS and RSG was also discussed.
