Luncheon Seminars
Networking/educational lunches are held once every other month. They feature a variety of guest speakers on topics relevantt to the local PR community.
Professional Development
We operate a professional development program that pools member resources on various topical teleseminars and webinars. Generally these seminars are a few hundred dollars per site and can be cost prohibitive for one person. However, several times a year the LVVC provides one location for a number of members to attend, greatly reducing the cost for each attendee.
Accreditation in Public Relations
Our accreditation chairs provide guidance for PR practitioners who study for and take the Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) exam.
Job Bank
You may post and view public relations job opportunities on prsalasvegas.com at no charge.
Membership Mixers
Leave work behind to mix and mingle with other chapter members and enjoy drinks and appetizers. Mixers are held a few times each year at unique locations.
Recognizing Excellence
We hold the Pinnacle Awards, an annual awards banquet, each November. It's similar to PRSA national's Bronze and Silver Anvil awards, but it's held in Las Vegas to recognize public relations excellence in Southern Nevada, Northern Arizona and Southern Utah. The Pinnacle Awards are open to everyone and members receive entry discounts.
