CVTC marketing team receives national awards

Chippewa Valley Technical College has received two 2024 Paragon Awards from the National Council for Marketing & Public Relations (NCMPR) at the council’s national conference in New Orleans, recently.
The College’s marketing team was awarded in the following categories:
- Gold in the Video Long-Form category for “Saved by CVTC,” an emotional account of CVTC graduates coming to the aid of one of their own.
- Bronze in the Wild Card category for creation of the College’s mascot, Ollie the River Otter.
The 2024 Paragon Awards drew 1,570 entries from 205 colleges throughout the country and was judged by 59 professionals from the marketing and public relations industry.
The awards recognize outstanding achievement in design, strategy and communication at community and technical colleges. It’s the only national competition of its kind that honors excellence exclusively among marketing and public relations professionals at two-year colleges.
