What are Education PR Agencies?

Education PR agencies are specialized public relations firms that focus on developing and executing strategic communications campaigns tailored for organizations in the education sector. These agencies provide services such as research, brand positioning, media relations, event management, crisis communication handling, content strategy and writing, website development and design, social media marketing, internal communications support and more. Education PR professionals use a mix of traditional methods (press releases) along with new technologies to build relationships with key audiences like students, parents and influencers. They also keep track of industry trends and news stories to ensure their clients stay ahead of the competition within the space. In addition to offering day-to-day support throughout an organization’s academic lifecycle – from admissions right up until graduation day - education PR firms also seek out opportunities for positive press coverage by pitching their clients directly to journalists or through creative initiatives such as stunts or viral videos. Their goal is always twofold: produce effective results while creating a long-term positive relationship between their clientele (i.e., schools/universities & colleges) and its target audience(s).
