United Way “Put Yourself in the Picture Award” Goes to Continuing Studies The Division of Continuing Studies took the EAT UNITED challenge seriously. Organizers Vicki Bandor Braun and Jan-Marie Zimmerman packed brown bag lunches for everyone in the department. Some sacks had nutritious food, some junk food, and some were filled with newspaper. Each person read a fact inside their lunch bag—many children miss a meal or pack their own lunch. The staff played United Way Program Pictionary, watched the United Way video, and listened as several described their agency visits and personal experiences. The luncheon impacted both awareness of the need and motivation to contribute to the mission of the United Way.

PBS Sponsorship Campaign Promotes Continuing Studies Programs IPFW Division of Continuing Studies launched a PBS sponsorship campaign with 3 ads highlighting the General Studies Degree Program, Corporate Training and Professional Development, and Personal Enrichment offerings. The ads helped to promote awareness and brand of the division and IPFW as a whole.

Social Media and E-Marketing Social Media In 2010, DCS staff provided leadership for the creation of the community-wide Social Media Breakfast—Fort Wayne and identified Blue Fuego as an SMB–FW speaker and consultant for IPFW’s social networking practices and policies. The collaboration resulted in a thorough review of the IPFW social media strategy and creation of social media guidelines for the whole campus. The Division of Continuing Studies ramped up connections to current and potential students by establishing Facebook pages for the General Studies e-Mentoring program, IPFW Online, IPFW Warsaw Center, and the IPFW Accelerated MBA. The pages allow for active communication between students and the programs, help with retention efforts, and provide students with an outlet to share their experiences and have any possible concerns answered and handled effectively and efficiently. Currently, more than 730 students, faculty, and staff are connected through these pages.

E-Marketing Staying in touch with students and potential customers is a priority for the Division of Continuing Studies and e-mail marketing and e-newsletters have proven to be the most effective way to do so.

The quarterly issues are sent to more than 1,000 contacts and include insightful articles from training and academic professionals, including IPFW alumni, on topics related to business and organizational growth. General Studies and Online Learning established e-newsletters as well to stay connected with students. The e-newsletters provide motivation, reminders of important dates, tips, registration information, access to the online registration system, graduation information, and much more. Continuing Studies reaches approximately 15,000 people annually through e-mail communications. Continuing Studies also started to take advantage of online and social media advertising in 2010.
