The Public Relations diploma program is perfect for students who have a passion for communication and connecting with people, and a desire to make a positive impact on society. In this two-year, hands-on diploma program, students will learn the theory and practice of public relations, and will develop the skills and knowledge necessary to successfully manage relationships on behalf of businesses and other organizations through the use of creative and strategic communication. Upon graduation, students will be prepared for careers in PR and communications, social media, publicity, media and influencer relations, public affairs, organizational communications, special events and fundraising, or continuing their studies in a Bachelors of Business Administration (BBA) or Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree program at KPU. The PR Diploma curriculum is carefully aligned with the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communication Management’s Global Capabilities Framework and Global Body of Knowledge, and was developed in consultation with an advisory committee consisting of senior PR and communication practitioners from industry, government and the nonprofit sector.
