UFS Marketing scoops Unitech award
2007-11-27

Printed materials produced by the marketing division at the University of the Free State (UFS) have been chosen as the best in the External Marketing: Marketing Material and Brochures category during the recent Unitech awards in Durban.

Unitech is an umbrella body for marketing and communications professionals in higher education in South Africa. UFS Marketing competed against 27 other tertiary institutions that took part in the Excellence Awards to claim this prestigious honour.

The awards recognise excellence in three major areas of expertise that are considered global best practices, namely marketing, communication and development. They provide tertiary institutions with a competitive platform to measure the quality and relevance of marketing material and communication with regard to their prospective target markets, in addition to evaluating the quality of marketing products between institutions.

The effectiveness and efficiency of marketing material was determined by:

  • The extent to which the information needs of the target groups were satisfied
  • The quality of communicated messages
  • The utilisation of communication media
  • The effective utilisation of communication networks within tertiary institutions
