Joe Head was Presented the 2010 Nolij Founders' Award at Engage 2010
Beverly, Massachusetts (27 Jun 2010) – Nolij Corporation, a leading provider of higher education focused software solutions, is pleased to announce the creation of the Nolij Founders’ Award and its first recipient, Joe Head, Dean, Emeritus, for University Admissions and Enrollment Services at Kennesaw State University.
When John Collins and John Dording founded Nolij in 1999, their plan was to build a company that was unique, technologically innovative and socially responsible. As President and Chief Executive Officer, John Collins recognized that the shortest path to ‘best in breed’ was to collaborate with customers early on and often. The trick of course was to find customers willing to do so and to go a step further by agreeing to help move the product forward through the sharing of ideas, strategies and suggestions for product improvements. Looking back, Nolij was fortunate to have crossed paths with a number of schools willing to take such a chance and make a lasting commitment to the success and growth of Nolij.
With this in mind, the Nolij Founders’ Award has been created to honor those individuals who have gone above and beyond the call of duty to adopt and integrate Nolij technology into their respective areas of influence. At Engage 2010, Nolij presented the inaugural Founders’ Award to a client who has spent much of his career innovating the use of document imaging in Higher Education, Joe Head.
Very early on in Nolij’s history, Joe chose a little known imaging company because he believed that innovative minds unhindered by ‘big company ethos’ would provide the spirit and intellect necessary to produce substantive change in higher education. For Joe, Nolij was an integral part of that change. “Nolij is honored to recognize Joe for his outstanding partnership and collaboration of more than a decade and for his unwavering quest for technological excellence in student service” lauded John Collins during the keynote session at Engage 2010.
