Crane International Academy Public Relations Management Course
Public Relations is a function performed, either on a full-time basis through appointed Public Relations Practitioners or on a part-time basis by other employees or members together with their other duties, in every organisation either commercial or non-commercial.
Public Relations is Also a function performed informally to a lesser or greater degree by every employee of an organisation and member of a non-commercial organisation such as a club, non-profit-making organisation, NGO, etc.
Many Public Relations practitioners are not formally trained for the job, nor did they apply to be appointed as Public Relations practitioners but happen to have assumed responsibility for Public Relations more by accident than by design. They perform these Public Relations duties without the necessary background knowledge or development of the relevant skills.
