5. Poster Checklist Checklist for Creating Posters
Ensure that you have the correct details for the event – event title, time, date, venue.
Submit the event to the events wall via the online portal (see the section on the electronic portal)
Create your wondrous poster with all the creativity you can muster.
Double check all the details by printing one copy before you print the whole batch.
Once you have everything finalised you may print off your posters.
Bring the posters to the accommodations office and show it to a member of staff and ask nicely for them to stamp it.
Once they are stamped set off and hang your posters where all of the lovely people of UCC may see them.
Pssst! Don’t forget to poster the satellite campuses for extra promotion! It can be a bit of a trek but it’s worth it!
