Event Report – Public Relations Crash Course (Sept. 4, 2019)

Last September 4, DAYANAN held the first run of “Public Relations for Government and Civil Society: A Crash Course for Professionals” at One Cafe and Events Place in Ortigas. Facilitated by Mr. Darwin Masacupan, the seminar aims to equip members of public information, marketing, and corporate communications departments with the knowledge and skills of an effective PR professional.
