- Description
- Since 1994, South Africa has been revamping its higher education system as part of a broader national reform movement aimed at overcoming the inequities and divisions caused by the now obsolete apartheid regime (Sedgwick, 2004). This treatise firstly describes and then explores if students identify themselves with the EMC corporate identity. Thereafter, it firstly explores and then describes the corporate identity awareness level of EMC students. An exploratory-descriptive research design was used. The researcher used two types of data. One was secondary data and the other one was primary data. The former were collected by means of an extensive review of the related literature. The latter were obtained by means of online questionnaires. The level of brand awareness among students is considered to be low. There is a need to improve the corporate identity awareness level of these strategic stakeholders for the future success of the college. This treatise concentrated on the parent brand (EMC). Furthermore, the sampling has been limited to students studying at EMC (Uitenhage campuses). It is important to explore the corporate brand awareness level of the students. It is also essential to discover if students identify themselves with the EMC brand.
