The next PRII Certificate in PR Account Management course starts on 10th February. It is designed specifically for Account Executives in Irish PR agencies who want to move into an account management role or someone recently promoted to that position.

One third of participants who undertook the course in 2017 have since been promoted into more senior roles.

What previous participants say:

"This course has prepared me not only for account management but it has informed my thinking on how to be more proficient and accountable at delivering PR which is targeted, on-message and measurable. The material and experience delivered by the course has accelerated my career in Public Relations and has allowed me to define my personal goals in the industry." - Stacey Connolly - Account Manager, Beachhut PR.

 “The Certificate in PR Account Management provided me with the practical knowledge and skills I needed to create compelling PR campaigns for my clients while also giving me an insight into how to efficiently manage their time and budgets. I found the course to be hugely beneficial and it definitely helped me to take the step up from Senior Account Executive to Account Manager.” Eoin McGinley - Account Manager, Comit PR & Marketing.

‘Completing the Certificate in Account Management course was a life- changing opportunity for me. It helped me to restore confidence in myself and to realise that a career in PR is a very attainable achievement, if I am willing to work for it. I personally gained an enormous amount of knowledge during the course, it has changed both my work and personal life is such a positive way. I have been able to employ the skills and tips I learnt with great results almost immediately. It made me think critically about things. After every class I was going home empowered and inspired.
