Last year’s recipients included:
Kansas State University
Exceptional Implementation Effort
In just one year, Kansas State University upgraded its instance of uAchieve to the latest version and implemented TES and Transferology to replace existing homegrown applications, ultimately reducing the workload for staff and eliminating the necessity to maintain and build homegrown applications. Due to demonstrated excellence with the simultaneous implementation of multiple products, CollegeSource awarded Kansas State University the Exceptional Implementation Effort Best Practices Award.
Dena Lawrence, Ed.M., Illinois MyCreditsTransfer
Transfer Champion Lifetime Achievement
In addition to her work as the Coordinator for Illinois MyCreditsTransfer, Dena had over 20 years of higher education experience in three states and provided training for 2- and 4-year advisors and high school college admission counselors. Dena also provided unwavering support for Transferology by actively sharing her extensive knowledge and experience with the product. Due to her dedication to student success, innovative use of technology, and commitment to continuous improvement which profoundly impacted the transfer community, CollegeSource awarded Dena with a Transfer Champion Lifetime Achievement Best Practices Award.
