TheICCN.com - The Inter-Collegiate Consulting Network

A platform that launched a couple of months ago, the Inter-Collegiate Consulting Network (ICCN) is a platform that intends to let students interact over the web. Not any kind of students, though – only those who are in consulting groups, including those who are at Universities and Colleges within the US, and also the ones who are located in foreign territories.

The services on offer include the ability to collaborate in projects and assist each other in career advancement. The website has been devised in a way that lets students practice and hone their skills, whereas the site’s structure will eventually allow for consulting firms to advertise by placing banners online.

Obviously, a platform like this will let these firms reach a laser-targeted demographic made up of self-starting and driven college and MBA students who are or will be seeking careers in consulting. Privacy is a major concern for the developers of the website as well; no one’s personal information is given out unless an individual user wishes to include his or her contact information.

In finishing, the site is perfect for those students who are looking to realize their goals in consulting, and who wish to become part of a community that is taking an exciting shape indeed.

“As a 20 year old college student at James Madison University I am able to relate to fellow students interested in consulting or a related industry. Our unique initial networking structure helps students practice their skills, express their creativity and realize their goals in consulting. The advantage of an entire network is endless. We are very distinct in that ICCN is the only site of its kind. Our registered students have the ability to network with one another; however, we offer the ability to exchange in depth information regarding their consulting groups or business groups at their respective colleges and universities. This is a free service offered to any student to take advantage of.”

College and networking go hand in hand, just think about how Facebook got its start.

How can this service advertise itself in order to become mainstream?
