One of the speakers, Mary Pat Barry, Corporate Communications Branch Manager from the City of Edmonton, spoke about a program called Edmontonstories. Edmontonstories, if [...]]]></description>

I am not a technical person. I can’t spew the technical differences between a PC and a Mac. Like the majority of the population, I don’t [...]]]></description>

There were many recent graduates of the Grant MacEwan Public Relations Program at the event, and a group of us began discussing the differences between IABC (the International Association of Business Communicators) and CPRS (the Canadian Public Relations Society).
