Public Relations PR is a multidisciplinary field that combines marketing, advertising and other communicative efforts. Generally, the goal of the public relations programs and courses is to help students understand how to assist individuals and businesses in connecting with the media, a particular market or the community-at-large.

Individuals who are interested in pursuing highly skilled careers may want to start by earning an associate degree at a community college or university. As students earn their degrees, they often expand their knowledge and worldview, as well as increase their professional qualifications.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
