Hey All!
Yesterday, March 1, Alpha PRoductions hosted its first conference! It was a huge success and the leadership did a FANTASTIC job! Alpha PRoductions is a student-run PR firm at the University of Florida. I have been involved with the firm for the past two years. The firm is a subset of our PRSSA Alpha Chapter.
I'll give a brief overview of what was taught to the 25 associate members.
There were four sessions that the students rotated through:
1. Creative Communications
2. Uplifting Leadership
3. Effective Interpersonal Relations
4. Financial Fundamentals
Each session was meant to be informative yet conversational. I learned several things but the most important was that Alpha PRoductions offers a professional experience in a very supportive culture. The firm was started in the 80's to give students real-world campaigns in a professional setting. I can honestly say that today the firm lives up to its original goal.
I have learned so much through the firm and have to thank Erika Zayas, Jessica Osorio and Micana Gallaway for putting on a FANTASTIC conference.
In the past year there have been many changes to the firm but I know they are all for the better. I am proud to be part of the organization!
