The Diploma in PR is a natural add on to the skill set of any solicitor or other professional. While we are all aware of the importance of client focus and attracting new business, putting that into coherent practise can often be hit and miss. The Dip PR gives you a ready understanding of the concepts behind the PR function, how PR can benefit and enhance your business and reputaiton, and offers practical ways to immediately start implementing what you have learned.

Having spoken to past students of both the European Institute of Communications (EIC) and other institutes, and with Eugene Grey, the Director Education at the EIC, there was no question that the EIC was the right choice for me. The level of personal commitment and engagement by Eugene, Ian, Brenda and the other lecturers in the regular lectures, Saturday recap sessions and by email were second to none.

As a long distance student this professionalism and personalised mentoring, particularly by Eugene, enabled me complete the course around my own busy work schedule and tackle the examinations with confidence. Would I recommend the EIC and the Diploma in PR to a friend or a family member, in a word, yes, and without hesitation.

Plus for any solicitors out there, as an additional bonus it fulfilled all my CPD point requirements for the year.
