It has been four months since I accepted the leadership role at the Community College Public Relations Organization (CCPRO), and the pace has been fast in learning about the issues and challenges facing the organization.   

The CCPRO Board of Directors have begun the work to build the organization into a solid and valued non-profit organization for community college public relations professionals.   

 

Thank you for this opportunity to share a few thoughts about surviving a career in community college public relations. They have come from a couple of round table discussions I was a part of at past CCPRO conferences.

 

Call it "ego-surfing for education"-Google and Google Alerts are the top tools for seeking out successful PR placements or even mere mentions of your community college name, programs, services, students, faculty, staff, or projects.
