HEERA Training Day for Higher Education External Relations staff

HEERA is pleased to announce the date for our annual Training Day (13 June 2012), which will offer staff new to HE and/or new to their field of work an opportunity to develop a stronger understanding of good practice in PR, Communications, Marketing, Alumni and Development within the HE sector and learn how all of these areas interact together.

Delegates will get an insight into each area; see how the various elements interact together and how they will work in the future.
