The Staff at the University of the West Indies (UWI) Open Campus Anguilla last week began a series of “Pop UP” activities at different locations on the island. Through this creative marketing strategy Staff take the UWI programmes to the public.
The sessions included live appearances on radio and social media, and on Thursday, 20th June the UWI Pop UP Team took the opportunity to share with the Staff of the Resort and Residences by Cuisinart.
On Friday, 21st the Team partnered with the National Commercial Bank of Anguilla (NCBA) for a special session. Customers of the NCBA, as well as the general public were afforded the opportunity to learn about University’s programmes and scholarships, as well as funding options by the Bank. The sessions will continue in early July with visits to Belmond Cap Juluca and other venues.
The UWI Team is thanking the general public for the great show of support and positive feedback on the activities. “These Pop UP activities have been extremely encouraging,” says Manager for the UWI Open Campus British Overseas Territories, Dr. Phyllis Fleming-Banks. “We thank the Cuisinart and NCBA for collaborating with us thus far and we look forward to continuing sharing the programmes and opportunities at the UWI by popping up at different businesses and other public places.”
Persons interested in the UWI Open Campus’ programmes are reminded that the deadline for Graduate applications for Semester One 2019/2020 is 30th June, while the deadline for Undergraduate applications has been extended until 15th July.
