    <content mode="escaped" type="text/html" xml:lang="en-US" xml:space="preserve">
      &lt;p&gt;The top marketers for TAFE and training in Australia were named last night, with TAFE South Australia taking the top honours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;TAFE SA Adelaide North was named Marketer/Business Developer of the Year at the Australian Training and Marketing Association (ATMA) 2010 awards dinner on Thursday night.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ATMA National President Alison Werner said TAFE SA was a strong marketing team that provided strong and creative marketing solutions for their institutes and this showed through in their entries.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;They have clearly analysed situations, responded with appropriate solutions And achieved results, as well as showed a huge commitment to industry engagement which is at the soul of the Vocational Education and Training sector,&amp;rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The awards attracted entries from around Australia over 12 categories, from business development to newsletters to marketing campaigns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;The judges reviewed some excellent campaigns, reports, publications, events and other initiatives that proved the high standard of marketing efforts in the training sector Australia wide,&amp;rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Entries were judged on level of difficulty, planning, creativity, implementation, results and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A very close second was TAFE Queensland, which created a mobile site for smart phone users to access TAFE information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;It is clear we have some talented marketers among us and it is clear that this is a sector of the education market that is going places. We need to acknowledge the amazing work that is being done around the country to promote training opportunities.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;With ever increasing competition in the education market, this is something to be celebrated.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;TAFE SA also topped the Course Guide category for their Building, Construction and Furnishing publication, and the Internal Marketing category for their Income Contingent Loans market research.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Other category winners were West Coast Institute of Training, TAFE Queensland, Goulburn Ovens Institute of TAFE, Wodonga TAFE, TAFE NSW and Central Institute of Technology.&lt;/p&gt;
