It's always exciting to kick-off a new marketing campaign. All the work that goes in behind the scenes finally sees the light of day. • collaborating with key colleagues across departments • listening to the perspectives and needs of your member volunteers • establishing objectives, goals, timelines, strategy • thoughtful copywriting and branding that aligns with your guidelines • scheduling, communicating, checking, analyzing, tweaking... The most satisfying part is seeing your members and the public engage with your content because it resonates with them. It has meaning and they connect with it. Can't wait to see how ACRP's 2024 Ride4DEI campaign comes to life. #Marketing #MarketingCampaign #AssociationMarketing #Associations #DigitalMarketing #DigitalMarketingStrategy #NonProfitMarketing #Branding #MemberEngagement

Testimonials “The support of MIT's FLI community and faculty not only helped me survive, but thrive, as a first-generation, low-income student, transforming my dream of attending college into a reality at MIT.” — Crista Flak ’23 6-9 (https://lnkd.in/dWkQUyiq) “FLI@MIT has been a transformative force, uniting first-generation and low-income students like myself, providing a crucial sense of community and belonging amidst MIT's academic challenges, and shaping my undergraduate journey into one of resilience and growth.” — Eren Shin ’23 6-9 and 7 (https://lnkd.in/dP_8i3EW) More stories from students and faculty here (https://lnkd.in/dyqbvVF7).

While it's still early days for me pursuing the Online Master of Science in Computer Science (OMSCS) degree at Georgia Tech, I've been extremely impressed by the program so far! One of its founders - Professor David Joyner - is following his "ikigai-aligned" mission and passion for leveraging new technologies to improve student learning at scale (check his recent blog about spending more than half of his life so far at Georgia Tech - https://lnkd.in/gHhsaAJA - it's so great to meet people who are genuinely happy about what they are doing). David and the team are going above and beyond to make this top-10 countrywide CS program affordable without sacrificing quality. The total cost of OMSCS degree is ~$7K, which is a fraction of what is charged by other comparable schools. 10K alumni and ~10K current students from 50 countries are part of the awesome OMSCS Yellow Jackets community. However, there are still millions of folks (from both developed and developing countries) who could have benefitted from OMSCS education, yet they won't be able to afford paying such a fee. Someone might argue - "There are plenty of free MOOCs!" - but most of them are not providing the level of student support, structure and, more importantly, community of like-minded learners and hustlers like OMSCS program does! If you are looking for some impactful options to donate, please consider participating in the "College of Computing OMSCS Fellowship Fund" by using this link: https://lnkd.in/gH4MQuvj P.S1. For my non-SWE friends - with the new HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) specialization introduced last year, there are plenty of cool courses related to Product Design, Analytics, Marketing and other PM fields that do not require advanced programming skills. I'm still debating between ML and HCI specializations but we'll see where my new education journey takes me in the next few quarters - both options seem cool! :) P.S2. "Is the program still relevant in the age of the GenAI revolution?" I believe the answer is YES. Things like HCI, ML Infrastructure and Cyber Security become even more relevant than they used to be. OMSCS program has great courses covering these topics. #GoYellowJackets! #OMSCS
