Marketing Services & Media Relations at Yavapai College

Charged with the overall marketing and promotion of the College, we do this through multiple communication vehicles and by working in partnership with faculty and staff.

Marketing Services

We offer several services to the college community, and we're only a phone call or e-mail away.

Services include:
  • Assistance with writing a news release (emphasis on news) through its distribution.
  • Design services for flyers and brochures via the use of a Marketing Request Form, available via myYC portal
  • Offer a branded toolkit (available through myYC portal) to create marketing materials for your own program or department.

Can I write and post my own news release?

Because this office is responsible for Yavapai College's media relations, all contact with the media must be coordinated through the Marketing and Communications Department at YC.

The Communications Director is available to assist you with researching and writing a news release or news item for your program or event. It will help to speed the production of your release if you compile in advance the pertinent information (who, what, where, when, why, and how), along with any publicity photos that you may have.

While it is possible for you to draft the content of your own news release, it must then be shared with the Communications Director for review, needed editing, and distribution to the media. This procedure works well because this office has established contacts with journalists and an up-to-date media list to maximize exposure.

Have questions? Please feel free to contact Marketing and Communications at marketingmgr@yc.edu.  

I Need a Printed Brochure, Flyer, Postcard, etc.

Yavapai College's Design Services is here to help. To initiate a design project, the design team needs a marketing request form or "MRF" (available in myYC portal) that details the project specifications and allows them to schedule and track it.
