Among the most valuable benefits PRSA members enjoy is free access to more than one hundred live and on-demand webinars covering a wide selection of professional development topics.

PRSA’s library of on-demand webinars currently covers APR test preparation, branding, communication strategy, crisis and reputation, ethics, leadership, media relations, social media and PR tactics.
In 2016, L.A. Connect will publish monthly reminders of new upcoming webinars. Pick a favorite and mark your calendar, while setting aside time to rediscover the wide range of on-demand webinars available right now to all PRSA members.
