Marketing Politics
In the year when everyone says the normal rules don't apply, how can you make sense of the current campaign for president? What sorts of things should you pay attention to with polls and other indicators talked about in the press? These questions and more will be discussed and available for Q&A during this webinar with the University of San Francisco.
This year's election is like the Super Bowl for political junkies and that's why we are pleased to announce our featured panelist as none other than our online professor, Ken Goldstein.
Professor Goldstein has worked in the news media in every federal election year since 1998 and will be featured in this term's webinar. During our one hour LIVE webinar you will learn about this year's campaigns, political ads, and what it's like behind the scenes of the political arena.
Join us October 10th to participate as a thought-partner during our Q&A forum and learn about the online MPA program and how faculty members like ProfessorGoldstein are blending theory and practice into their career and the online classroom.
