Hello! And Welcome...

So here we go...

(L to R Hannah Park, Paul Fryer
and Elisabeth Coughlin at the CIPR
awards 2011)

My name is Paul Fryer and I am the new Digital Marketing manager at the University of Bedfordshire. I've actually already been here for five years as the Web and Publications Officer in Learning Resources so I already have a good understanding of how things work at the Uni!

The idea of this Blog is to post details of any latest developments we're working on or are planning as a team or department. I'm very fortunate to have inherited a fantastic team (who hopefully I can coax to add some posts on here themselves in the future!), they are:

Elisabeth Coughlin - Web Editor
Mick Hart - Publications Officer
Hannah Park - Digital Marketing Assistant

So there you have it - let the Blogging begin! As this is our first post I'm going to be a bit self indulgent and briefly mention the silver Heist award I won with my old team for 'Best Internal Communication campaign'. It was a great night at the Queens hotel in Leeds and hopefully will be the first of many more accolades for us here at the University.

Next week I'm off to the Institutional Web Management Workshop 2012 so hopefully will have some interesting updates to share from there...
