Current HESS / Coalition Contract Business Partner Portal
Welcome to our business partner portal with links that are important for our business contract partners and affiliates. Our HESS / Coalition Business Contract Partners have two very special benefits to enhance their engagement with HESS members.
- HESS Business Partners Quarterly Articles – Our contract partners are encouraged to include a short article teaser with a link to drive member traffic to your website for more information or continuation of your article. The link for this can be found above.
- HESS Quarterly Webinars– Contract partners are encouraged to schedule quarterly webinars with our member institutions for product demos, product updates or general thought leader topics. The link to schedule your webinars can be found above.
Within the webinar reservation form is a dropdown showing what dates are taken by our partners. Please avoid these dates as two webinars cannot be scheduled on the same date. Our business partners and affiliates are allowed general use of our HESS Consortium and the Coalition for College Cost Savings logos.
Click here to download our logos for white and dark backgrounds. Please note that these forms are only for approved business partners of the HESS Consortium and The Coalition for College Cost Savings. All other submissions will be deleted. Thank you!
