Are you ready to learn how to achieve your communication goals more effectively? Have you been putting off developing a strategic communication plan for your school district or agency? Ready to take your professional learning to the next level?

If any of your answers are “yes,” then NSPRA's Mid-Career Academy is for you!

Over the course of the 2023-2024 school year, up to 40 participants will learn about seven areas of strategic importance. Leading the conversation and learning is Kenon Brown, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Advertising and Public Relations at the University of Alabama. In addition to Dr. Brown. The final hour of each module will have guest speakers lead a conversation and/or presentation focused on a special communications topic.

Participants also will complete a capstone project, working with Dr. Brown to build a research-driven strategic communication plan for their school, school district or educational service agency.

To minimize disruptions and distractions from the workday, classes will be held virtually once a month on Saturday for three hours from 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. EST:
