Just to touch on what Philip and Stuart have already mentioned. The University of Sunderland is host to a CIPR conference for PR practitioners – ‘Making the news: Blogging, RSS and the New PR’.
Held on November 18th, it will be an excellent day out with some great guest speakers:
Tom Murphy - Keynote speaker.
Philip Young – How weblogs are changing PR.
Chris Rushton – How to get newsrooms to notice PR.
Stuart Bruce – Blogs in business.
Elizabeth Albrycht – Monitoring, evaluation and networking in the New PR.
Tony Bradley, CIPR president elect – Opening and closing the conference.
I’m very happy to say that I’ll be helping out on the day and I’ll also have the opportunity to meet some of the people whose blogs I read on a daily basis.
It’s great that a CIPR conference is being held right on my doorstep…literally! (I study at the University of Sunderland) Not only that, it will introduce blogging and RSS to more UK PR practitioners, particularly in the North East.
If you work in PR and are new to the blogging phenomenon, this is an ideal opportunity to come along and see what it is all about. Tickets are reasonably priced at £75 + VAT for CIPR members and £95 + VAT for non-members.
