Hello from RGU Scotland!

Hello all,

What a brilliant idea Michelle! I don't quite know why we didn't come up with this sooner!

At the moment myself and Nicola (Undergraduate Rep) are in the midst of planning our event. Our university for the past few years has held a joint CIPR and GPRG (Grampian PR Group) even in Aberdeen which generally tends to showcase both the CIPR and GPRG, and our lecturer thought that this would be the perfect opportunity for us to use our CIPR briefs. So Nicola and myself are planning the joint event. Unfortunately it will take place after our projects are due to be handed in, but this is mainly due to the committments of the students at RGU around this time of year as the 4th years are busy with their dissertations and the postgraduates are away on their placements so we had to fit the event in when most students could attend. We are still hoping that our event will be a success. At the moment we are looking at people to invite PR professional wise and our regional CIPR  group CIPR Scotland have been very welcoming and helpful and have offered their services if we so require one of them to speak at our event. We have also asked Behind the Spin if they would come up and talk to the students about this and possibly do a workshop similar to the one they did with us on our training day!

Anyway i'd better get back to doing some uni work! Will speak soon!
