Education, training and coaching for communication professionals

Information for prospective students

PR Academy believes strongly in the importance of qualifications as a way to boost the standing of PR and communication disciplines. That’s why, as well as the qualifications, we offer a bursary scheme and student award.

PR Academy bursary

We know that it can sometimes be hard to fund study but we believe that this shouldn’t be a barrier to professional development.

The PR Academy bursary is designed to help those who are keen to achieve a professional qualification in Public Relations but are unable to fund the full cost.

The bursary can be used for a course starting within 12 months of the date of the award.

Find out more about the bursary here.

Course award

We want to recognise and reward students who have achieved outstanding results and contributed to the body of PR knowledge.

The PR Academy course award recognises those students who have achieved an overall distinction on the face to face courses: the CIPR Diploma and Advanced Certificate.

The award is made each year in the spring/summer for those graduating the previous autumn and that spring.
