If you would like the chapter to open the seats to others, please email\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:brooke.taylor@pwsrcac.org\">Brooke Taylor<\/a>.\u00a0Once registration closes, all ticket sales are final.<\/p>\n<p>At-the-door sales will only be accepted if space is available at the start of the meeting. If seats are not available, walk-ins may purchase a late registration ticket to the event and receive coffee service.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New pricing structure:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At PRSA Alaska, we often hear how valuable the local professional development opportunities are for professionals. We think so too! These opportunities, usually in the form of luncheons held each month, are a great way to improve your skills and network with peers in a similar profession. While PR professionals don\u2019t always love math and budgets, we do know that our revenue must meet our expenses. So, beginning this month, there will be a modest price increase for all professional development opportunities in Anchorage and Fairbanks. As always, members will still receive a discounted rate. Non-members will pay a slightly higher rate.
