IPRA, the International Public Relations Association, has signed a co-operation agreement with both the Lithuanian Communication Association (LCA) and the Lithuanian Association of Public Relations Agencies (RSVA). Under the agreement, inter alia, the organisations will exchange materials such as IPRA’s Thought Leadership essays and know-how to help with the development of the PR profession.
Talking about the agreement LCA Chairman Elena Martinioniene comments: “Communication professionals constantly need to update their knowledge, improve their skills and understand future trends. Collaboration with an international community provides that great opportunity. I strongly believe that this co-operation will be beneficial for the members of both organizations.”
“The RSVA highly values the experience and competencies of IPRA. Our market is more then happy to adopt IPRA’s best practises, know-how and experience to ensure the highest standards of public relations. Cooperation with IPRA will benefit Lithuanian public relations agencies by improving our professional skills. Both organisations will have a great opportunity to share experiences and competences and discuss latest communication trends” comments Romualda Stonkute, Chairwoman of the Board of The Lithuanian Association of Public Relations Agencies.
