The North-West University (NWU) hosted the annual MACE National Workshop on 10 and 11 May 2018 at the NWU’s campus in Potchefstroom.

Sixty delegates from 14 institutions across the country attended the two-day
workshop, and for many it was their first MACE event.

In typical MACE tradition, delegates had the opportunity to engage with corporate and industry leaders on various
topics. These included re-branding an institution, getting academics to share their expertise, overcoming the nightmare of protocol, adapting your website to a changed environment, how to keep your stakeholders involved and changing your annual report to an integrated report.

One of the main objectives of MACE is to create a platform for its members where they can learn from peers and establish sound networks. Not only were delegates afforded this opportunity during the workshop, but also during the cocktail event.

Delegates commented that the workshop was “well organised”, “perfectly planned”, “of a high standard”, “topical speakers”, and “an event not to be missed”. This surely gives an indication of the value added through national events such as this one.
