About this course

Graduates of the Public Relations and Event Management program will be able to provide potential employers with two in-demand skill sets in a strong marketplace.

Graduates roles could include corporate spokesperson, media relations, issues management, community relations, event management, government affairs, publicity and promotion, sponsorship and fund raising. Recent studies in the public relations industry indicate a continuing demand over the next several years for PR staff in business, charitable and non-profit organizations, and government at all three levels. This ongoing demand is combined with the fact many senior PR practitioners will be retiring from the industry in the next five years creating further job opportunities. Graduates will be well positioned to work towards professional accreditation from the Canadian Public Relations Society (CPRS) or the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC)
