Useful Links

For easy reference by PRSA members, we've listed information about various professional groups and resources in public relations, with links to their sites. We've included newsletters, online resource sites, executive search firms, and other professional organizations.

On their sites you may find information that will help you with a current project, a job search, or the planning phase for adding a new professional discipline to your range of specialties.

Professional Organizations

Members of the Arthur W. Page Society come primarily from the ranks of the largest corporations, and only the most senior PR person in the company is eligible.

Similar to the ways in which PRSA serves the needs of individual practitioners, the Council of Public Relations Firms represents the interests of large PR firms.

Research and education are the foundation of the Institute for Public Relations, which offers findings and research papers of interest in daily PR practice.

The International Association of Business Communicators was known for employee communications but now covers most practice areas for both internal and external audiences.
