AMN462 Community Consultation and Engagement

This unit introduces students to communication engagement, a key practice area of public relations. AMN462 investigates the theoretical foundations of contemporary strategies to inform research, planning, and implementation. Stakeholders (i.e., organisations, local community and government) have their own agendas and expectations of the processes and outcomes of these strategies. Effective engagement practitioners identify these expectations and facilitate communication, interaction, participation and dialogue to address questions of authenticity and voice. In this unit, students will develop the skills and knowledge needed to help organisations identify stakeholder expectations, develop and implement appropriate engagement programs, and evaluate engagement strategies within a framework of ethical practice. AMN462 aims to prepare students to help organisations plan for, implement, and evaluate the communication engagement strategies.
