Event Recap: ISSofBC's Meet & Greet for Marketing and Communications Professionals
CPRS
Earlier this month, CPRS’ Executive Director Lorianne Weston had the opportunity to represent the National Society at an online event hosted by ISSofBC, which connected new Canadians with key stakeholders in the field of marketing and communications.
During the event, participants learned how to unlock opportunities through strategic networking, earned job search resources and heard tips from experts. Lorianne joined CPRS Vancouver’s Tanya Colledge, APR and Lesley Chang, who took time from their busy schedules to allow participants to learn more about the benefits of joining a local society and shared the value their members find in the CPRS Vancouver mentoring program, networking and PD events.
Thanks to Tanya and Lesley for attending and to the ISSofBC for organizing the event and inviting CPRS to take part. Best of luck to all of the attendees on their future career endeavours!

Webinar Announcement: Engaging Employees through Corporate Social Responsibility Programs
CPRS
The message is clear: people want to work for organizations where they feel they are engaged and learning. This is what inspired Paula Bernardino, MCM, SCMP, CSR-P, to pursue the study “Engaging Employees through Corporate Social Responsibility Programs: Aligning Corporate Social Responsibility and Employee Engagement” and examine whether companies that engage in social and environmental stewardship also benefit from employees who are more aware and involved.
In our next CPRS member webinar, Tuesday, February 23, 1 p.m. ET, Paula will be presenting the results of her recent study, which demonstrated that applicants research a company’s CSR information when applying to work there. And once working inside the organization, employees notice CSR initiatives and want to get involved.
CPRS members, visit cprs.ca/learn to sign up today. Not a member? Join CPRS now to gain access to PD opportunities like this one, and get even more engaged with the Canadian public relations community this year!

CPRS' Insurance partner, PROLINK, presents, Eight Dos and Don'ts For Protecting Your Valuables
CPRS
Whether it’s a diamond ring, a classic sneaker collection, or a brand new flatscreen, there are some items you can’t imagine losing. Items that you carefully picked out or that would be impossible to replace. Items that might take months, or even years, of income to purchase — but only seconds to be lost, stolen, or damaged.
Think you’re covered under your homeowner’s policy? Guess again. While property insurance is designed to safeguard your home and what’s inside it, that doesn’t mean every item under your roof is automatically insured. In fact, some of the most valuable assets in your home might be completely unprotected.
Concerned? Read on to find out 4 things you should do to keep your prized possessions safe — and 4 you shouldn’t. https://bit.ly/358Qd3g
