About this event
- 2 hours
Communications Cohort is returning this July! Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to higher education sustainability communications and outreach, this cohort is for you! Take time before the start of the school year to develop an effective communications strategy.
The cohort will meet virtually for five weeks and dive into topics like key messaging, social media strategies, storytelling techniques, content creation, scheduling and metrics, behavior change principles, and more each week. Plus, there will be ample opportunities for discussion, workshopping, and practice. Templates and take-home activities and resources will be provided, as well as optional 1:1 coaching and discussion debriefs with your cohort members.
Connect with like-minded individuals, expand your network, and gain inspiration from fellow cohort members. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to enhance your communications and learn from others in a casual and fun environment.
Please Note: This cohort is discussion-based and participants will be expected to complete short homework assignments each week and share their thoughts and questions in both small and large group discussions.
Once registered, attendees will receive a brief survey to confirm availability and topics of highest priority. This will shape the content of the cohort and ensure maximum participation.
Space is limited! The cohort will be capped at 15 participants.
