UJ Students Place 3rd at the Effie College Programme Awards 2025

The 欧美福利100000 of Johannesburg’s 2nd Year BCom Marketing students won 3rd place in the first Effie College Programme Awards. The AdVengers, led by their lecturer Mr Frans Van Der Colff, faced strong competition from their peers, not only from UJ but also the 欧美福利100000 of Cape Town (UCT), North-West 欧美福利100000 (NWU) and the AAA School of Advertising (AAA).

Ronewa Ogilvie, Lethabo Mohaswa, Owame Mapedi and Amohelang Sehloho impressed the judges with their marketing strategy, showing their ability to work from the problem identification stage through to developing the creative strategy to solve it. The judges, including strategic directors and senior marketing managers from a number of different industries completed a rigorous judging process from 13 October to 4 November, with the winners announced on the 14th of November 2025. We also extend our congratulations to the other top teams, UCT teams Stargazers and Brand Minds.

Effie College aims to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world marketing practice, which aligns perfectly with the Department of Marketing Management鈥檚 goal of developing industry-ready graduates. The AdVengers鈥 3rd place finish is a proud achievement for UJ, reflecting the strategic insight, creative thinking and hard work our students have become known for.
