Dear Dean Wilson,
We are professionally connected via LinkedIn which opens up opportunities to share information with one another. There are several national universities engaged in a Special Project opportunity that could quickly fill a need at Indiana University Northwest.
Grab Attention Continued
Among these are The University of Texas-Austin's Professional Development Center and Indiana State University. Both are accredited university partners offering 8 fee-based Certificates in Technical Communication along with 2 tuition-free MOOC Certificate Courses from JER Online.
Address a Need/s
In reading over the IUN mission statement and its reference to meeting the needs of Adult Continuing Education students, I believe there is a solid opportunity here; that is, one that would effectively meet the needs of those seeking Technical Communication Training to be applied in Domestic and International workplace settings.
Satisfaction Statement
The opportunity I am proposing will include a generous share of revenue for all fee-based certificate courses. Additionally IUN will be the only program in your service area to offer tuition-free Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).
Visualization
IUN will quickly become the premier provider of Online Technical Communication Training. Enrollments will flow from companies, freelancers, consultants and those seeking new career opportunities, including the
military.
