Prepare yourself for the real world with free access to CisionPoint and online classes.

In today’s job market, a leg up requires hands on

Graduates today face the toughest job market in decades. In 2010, new college graduates had almost 40% fewer job prospects than five years ago, a new report from Michigan State University’s survey on recruiting trends shows. Getting a PR job is no longer as easy as having an excellent academic record. To compete in this environment, students need to know more, do more, be more.

Employers are looking for new hires that can immediately start to shoulder the workload with very little training. That means hands on experience with the most widely used tools of the trade. You can get that with the free CisionPoint Curriculum for Colleges and Universities. Register your school to get started.

A smart addition to your class

Using the free CisionPoint Curriculum in your classes gives you valuable training on CisionPoint – the award-winning on-demand workflow software used by 90% of the top PR firms – so you’ll be better-equipped to enter the job market. With the CisionPoint Curriculum, you will be as prepared practically as you are theoretically. Because without it, everything’s academic.
