A new key Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) membership benefit grants members free access to the 50 live and on-demand online public relations training webinars that are planned for this year, and now, there is a more user-friendly way for you to find them.
We have been working behind the scenes on the PRSA Calendar of Events to make virtual programming and in-person training easier and faster for you to locate. You can browse training sessions by date, or fine-tune your search by selecting a category to find a session by category.
Click Narrow By Category to see the categories available.
To access the free live and on-demand online training webinars or pay the member rate for in-person training seminars, first log in to your MyPRSA account and then complete the registration.
Expanded program categories, which are defined on each category page, now include:
- Accreditation Preparation & Maintenance
- Communication Strategy
- Crisis & Reputation
- Leadership & Management
- Measurement & ROI
- Media Relations
- Social Media
- Techniques & Tactics
- Writing
Fail-Safe Browsing
Many of our training programs fit comfortably into more than one category. You will find such programs on each appropriate category page. For example, “Anatomy of a 2.0 Release” can be found under the Writing and Techniques & Tactics categories.
Current Events
Check out the Calendar of Events to see the 2012 webinars that currently are scheduled. Additional webinars will be added as we continue our outreach to new speakers and partners. Additional in-person events are in the works, and will appear on the Calendar of Events once they are confirmed.
With one click, you can browse our growing On-Demand library. Be sure to check back as we continue to add more webinars from the past year.
Professional Interest Sections Webinars
If you would like to explore industry-specific topics, PRSA Professional Interest Sections offer webinars that address current industry issues and trends. Sections members can access their Section’s webinars for free (a charge is applied to all others). If you do not belong to a PRSA Section, you may join at any time to get insider industry information that is critical in today’s highly competitive workforce.
I hope you will take advantage of this new PRSA member benefit. PRSA offers a wide range of content; if you don’t see what you need, tell me!
