Here are the instructions/guidelines for those of you who who are grads of Print Futures: Professional Writing or the Post-Degree Diploma in Professional Communication. Email me if you have questions: [email protected]. Hoping to start publishing these mid-September.

** I'm pulling together a series of short profiles (max. 200 words) of grads. Could you reflect a little and send me an update? It would be published on our program site(s), so a public audience.

Some q's to spark your profile:
1. What you do now.
2. Any further education and/or credentials.
3. Any advice for new students/grads in professional communication.
4. Most memorable moment during your studies.
5. Any link you'd like included (e.g., LinkedIn, company, and so on).
6. A photo.

Oh, and please remind me of your graduation year. I have incomplete records for the early years.

Thanks again for participating.
