The COA BRAND
Building External Networks and Linkages Program is dedicated to establishing constant communication with the “COAs” of other universities. The focus is not on the quantity of the orgs but on the quality of relationship with these organizations. This will have two phases:
1. First Phase: The Bridging Capital
a. COA CB will conduct a survey on the various organizations and companies that COA orgs have partnered with in the past year. This will include companies, NGOs, Government offices, Student Organizations and Foundations.
b. The survey will identify not just the names and contact information of the said organizations. This will also assess the degree or depth of the relationship.
c. As a result, the survey will give us the big picture on which external units to focus on.
2. Second Phase: Constant Meeting and Referrals
a. Representatives from the Executive Board shall establish constant communication with the organizations in the list. Furthermore, the Council shall enter into partnerships with other “COA” (e.g. SOCC – UST, CSO – DLSU, etc.) upon the ratification of the Council of Representatives.
