How School PR Can Meet the Employee Recruitment Challenge
The staffing situation is bleak for many school districts due to widespread competition for quality employees and their dissatisfaction with compensation and job expectations. Learn how school districts nationwide are responding to the crisis and what school communicators can do to help their districts tackle the employee recruitment challenge. In this hands-on session, you’ll learn how to create a research-backed Employee Value Proposition that will elevate your recruitment messages and make your district’s employment opportunities stand out from the crowd.

In this session, learn new research about brand ambassadors and why it matters.
