Concordia's dynamic institution promotional campaign and re-designed university Web site were both gold medal winners in this year's Canadian Council for the Advancement of Education (CCAE) Prix d'excellence competition.

CCAE groups over 1,000 members from more than 170 post-secondary institutions.

Marketing Communications won gold in the "Best Institutional Branding Program" category and the Web Communications group in Internal Relations & Communications took gold for "Best Institutional Home Page on the World Wide Web".

Marketing Communications, working with the Recruitment Office, also won a Silver Medal in the "Best Flyer" category for the Concordia international recruitment flyer.

A brochure targeting potential coop student employers produced by the Institute for Co-operative Education program, with the help of Marketing Communications, won an Award of Merit from the Society for Technical Communicators.

In early April, the Web Communications group hosted the judging for the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) Circle of Excellence Awards in the Web sites category.
