Southeast Tech Marketing Team Wins National Recognition for Enrollment Campaign

Southeast Tech has achieved national recognition for its marketing efforts, a significant milestone celebrated during the Sioux Falls School District's Southeast Tech School Board meeting on July 16, 2025. Megan Fisher, Vice President for Enrollment Management and Student Affairs, announced that the institution received awards from the prestigious Educational Advertising Awards, the largest competition of its kind for higher education in the United States.

The accolades were primarily for the college's 2024-2025 view book, a key recruitment tool showcasing the institution's offerings and designed by Carmen Landhouse, a Southeast Tech graduate. Additionally, the marketing team was recognized for their integrated marketing and advertising campaign, which Fisher described as a testament to the team's hard work and creativity.

Fisher highlighted the contributions of Landhouse and Jen, the Marketing and Communications Director, noting their extensive experience and dedication to enhancing the college's brand. The recognition not only validates their efforts over the past several years but also strengthens trust with prospective students and their families, ultimately supporting enrollment growth.

The meeting also included routine administrative approvals, such as the minutes from the previous meeting and the consent agenda items. Board members expressed their appreciation for the marketing team's achievements, emphasizing the importance of their work in promoting Southeast Tech's mission and values.

As the college continues to build on this momentum, the recognition serves as a reminder of the impact effective marketing can have on educational institutions, fostering a positive image and attracting future students.
