Northwest-Shoals Community College’s Public Relations Department received six awards and was recently recognized for its outstanding marketing and public relations efforts by the Alabama Community College System Public Relations Association. 

During ACCSPRA’s recent annual conference in Orange Beach, NW-SCC public information officer Trent Randolph accepted one Pyramid Award, three Awards of Achievement and two Awards of Merit. 

The college was presented awards in the following categories for marketing and public relations materials created or used during the 2018-2019 year:
