Open Agenda
Approve the 2006-07 CTACE Marketing Plan for adult workforce and lifelong learning programs/courses.
The School Board annually approves the comprehensive marketing plan for the promotion of post secondary technical, adult general and community education programs, courses and activities offered through the District’s technical centers, adult centers and community schools. Over 200,000 students enroll annually as a result of the District’s marketing and promotion efforts. The marketing plan provides the community with opportunities to learn about and enroll in technical, adult and community education workforce and lifelong learning programs, courses and activities for career, professional and personal growth. A committee appointed by the North Central Area Superintendent, developed the 2006-07 CTACE Marketing Plan, in partnership with Omni Advertising. The company serves as our Agency of Record, responsible for negotiating media buys, developing print and broadcast media creatives, monitoring the implementation of the marketing plan, and providing data to assess the effective use of the funds. The total marketing plan consists of print, broadcast and specialty advertising including:
• The Broward Educator, a publication mailed to every Broward County household prior to each of the five registration periods, plus an on-line edition hosted by the Sun Sentinel.
• Targeted radio, television, outdoor, and local community newspaper advertising.
• Direct mail, Yellow Page advertisements, and special events.
The 2006-07 CTACE marketing expenditures shall not exceed the 2005-06 expenditures.
The financial impact shall not exceed the 2005-06 level of $2,460,000. The sources of funds are student fees, school operating funds, and the Adult and Community Education Grant. The District’s contribution to support this item is included in the CTACE Department’s budget. There is no additional financial impact to the District.
