Hello PRSA Austin members and friends,
I'm Nandini Bhalla, PRSA Austin's Director-at-Large for Membership. This month, I'm excited to share an excellent opportunity for recent graduates and for anyone connected with emerging communications professionals.
PRSA National has announced that PRSSA members graduating in 2026 are eligible to receive their first year of PRSA membership at no cost. This is a valuable opportunity for new professionals to continue building their networks, access career resources, stay current on industry trends and remain connected to the broader public relations community as they begin their careers.
Activating the complimentary membership is simple:
- Log in to MyPRSA at myprsa.prsa.org/MyDues.
- Select "Join PRSA for Free."
- Complete the registration process.
Once your national membership is active, we encourage you to join PRSA Austin and become part of our vibrant local community. Our chapter offers meaningful professional development, networking opportunities, mentorship and connections with communications professionals across Central Texas. Whether you're seeking your first role or looking to expand your professional network, PRSA Austin is here to support your journey.
If you know a graduating PRSSA member, please share this opportunity with them. Questions? Contact us at membership@prsaaustin.org and we'll be happy to help.
While this opportunity is especially exciting for new graduates, PRSA Austin welcomes professionals at every stage of their careers. Whether you're a student transitioning into the profession, an early-career communicator, or a seasoned practitioner looking to expand your network and stay connected to industry trends, we invite you to join our community and take advantage of the professional development, networking and leadership opportunities PRSA Austin offers.
We look forward to welcoming you to PRSA and PRSA Austin.
