SGTC Marketing Management advisory committee meets

The South Georgia Technical College Marketing Management advisory committee met recently in the Odom Center on the SGTC Americus Campus. The purpose of the advisory committee is to assist South Georgia Technical College faculty and staff in continuous quality improvement of the Marketing Management programs. SGTC Marketing Management Instructor Mary Cross provided the committee with updates and information about program changes, enrollment, community activities, and student news. The advisory committee members provide information to SGTC faculty and staff about suggested improvements in curriculum, new training opportunities that are available in the field of Marketing Management, new technology, employment/internship opportunities available for students, and salary levels students may anticipate upon graduation. Members present at the advisory meeting were Kara Dunn of Innovative Senior Solutions, Andrea Tatum of Pharmacentra and Concentra Solutions, Whitney Kimbrough of Southwest Project for Community Education, Inc.; Robert Harvey of Middle Flint, Harriet Glover of Belk, and Jasmine Mercer, Mary Cross, Dr. Andrea Oates, and April Hilliard of South Georgia Technical College. The advisory committee is a crucial link that provides an avenue for South Georgia Tech instructors to learn about changing conditions or technology in the workplace that can then be passed along to students that will enable them to be fully prepared upon graduation.
