Looking to expand your portfolio and make solid connections with others in the local PR community? Volunteering can help you achieve your goals and CPRS-VI has numerous projects, committee, and board opportunities available.
PR pro Michelle Garrett agrees and says volunteering can help you keep your knowledge current, enhance your credibility, and meet your future mentors.
Maybe you want to start by volunteering on a project or serving on one of our committees. Or you could hone your technical skills: newsletters, events, websites, social media - oh my!
Then you might move on to the CPRS-VI board, learn how to set and execute strategic direction, manage people and resources - make the influential relationships you need in the same town where you want to make your mark.
Polish it all off by moving to the CPRS National Board and help shape the direction of Canada's only professional association for public relations practitioners - and for the public relations field itself.
