Let’s talk about how to get the word out about your program!

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? The same can be said about your classes, programs, events, results and more. If we don’t have a plan to communicate, your program just might end up being that proverbial tree.

In this session, we will:

  • Identify target audiences and how to best reach them
  • Discuss why your audience should care
  • Provide guidance on developing a timeline
  • Share tools available to promote your program
