The 2010 Business Co-op Student of the Year Award recipient was Allison MacLeod, a Third Year student from Kinkora, PEI. Allison was employed with Imageworks Communication Group from May-August 2010 as a Marketing Event Manager where she completed her first Co-op work term. MacLeod’s main project was the 2010 Cavendish Beach Music Festival, where she was responsible for marketing CBMF, as well as organizing vendors, volunteers and media.

Jeff Squires, President of Imageworks Communication Group, expressed his sincere appreciation for Allison’s work, “During Allison’s work term she impressed me with her skills and attitude. She had the ability to provide excellent customer service, demonstrated leadership, and worked very effectively and efficiently in dealing with our suppliers. Allison is intrinsically motivated, well planned, and is taking responsibility for the successful planning of her career path. She is the type of young professional who will continue to develop and become a valued member of society.” MacLeod will return to the Imageworks team once again this summer to complete her second Co-op work term.
