JOUR 445 - Tehama Group Communications

Tehama Group Communications, better known as TGC, is our student-managed public relations agency. It provides Chico State public relations students with intensive hands-on experience. This kind of valuable experience is increasingly important in today’s highly competitive job market. Tehama Group’s goal is to give every member the skills and confidence to succeed in public relations.

Tehama Group operates as a professional agency – and in doing so strives to give its members experience in various public relations functions. They gain this experience in the following two ways:

• Functioning as a member of an agency: participating in agency and client meetings, following office policies and procedures, and working in both one-on-one and collaborative efforts.

• Taking on the responsibility of an account: analyzing its needs, managing its direction, seeing it through from planning to implementation stages, working under the pressure of deadlines and balancing all of this with other academic obligations.
