PRSSA National Conference



Every year, members of the Public Relations Student Society Of America (PRSSA) have the chance to attend a National Conference. The conference is in a new city every year. Typically the city is picked based on the diversity, economic growth, and opportunities for public relations students offered. This year the conference location is Atlanta, Georgia. 

Atlanta is a thriving city filled with many great professional opportunities. The city is home to many public relations firms such as Edelman, Porter Novelli, Ketchum, Jackson Spaulding, and several others. The city is also home to many iconic brands such as Coca Cola, General Motors, Chick-Fil-a, CNN, and many more. Conference attendees will have the chance to tour different companies, and firms as well as hear from the top executives running the show. The opportunity for professional growth by attending this conference is phenomenal. Attendees have the chance to network, pick the brains of fortune 500 leaders, and work on their PR skills.

The conference is not all work and no play. Attendees have the chance to explore Atlanta, and see what the city culture is all about. The list of things to do in Atlanta is never ending. Atlanta is home to a word class aquarium and zoo, Central Olympic Park, High Museum Of Art, Turner Field, Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Site, and so many more. The conference begins this Friday November 5th. Atlanta is about to host the largest public relations student group in the nation. Registrations for this year is over, watch out for next years city selection.

  1. Sam- I am looking forward to PRSSA’s National Conference. I can’t believe we are leaving tomorrow. Where has the time went? I have never been to Atlanta or a National Conference so it will definitely be a trip full of firsts. I am looking forward to touring some of the top firms and hear from their exec’s. Along with improving my PR skills, I can’t wait to spend some time with fellow members of PRSSA. I heard next year’s conference is in Indianapolis. Looks like we will find out this weekend!
