The topic in discussion is the tutoring of public relations as a study field as well as its role in the music industry for upcoming matric graduates.

ReplyDeleteYeah I totally agree... When I Got To Varsity And Realised How Many Different Career Options There Are Available Out There, Some That I've Never Even Heard Of, I Realised Just How Much As A Scholar In High School You Don't Know About The Options Available To You, All That Was Reali Promoted In My High School Was Maths, Science And Accounting... I Was Told That's The Way To Go And Almost Made To Believe That That Is All There Is Out There... Fields Of Study Such As Public Relations Aren't Reali Mentioned Let Alone Promoted...
