About Shel Holtz Webinars

Professional development is an absolute must for professional communicators today, whether you work in corporate or organizational communication, PR, marketing, investor relations, media relations, publicity…you name it. The fact is, things are changing too fast to stay out of the loop.

Trouble is, getting away from the office to attend the kind of workshop that provides you with real value is getting harder and harder. There’s the cost in a time when budgets are stretched as far as they can go. Then there’s the time away from the office. (It doesn’t help that some people believe if you have time to leave work to attend a workshop, you must not have enough to do.)

These webinars offer a viable and exciting alternative. For a fraction of the price of a live, in-person workshop, you can attend a webinar online, at your convenience, and get nearly all the benefits you would have reaped traveling to another city, spending a night or two in a hotel, and eating a mediocre banquet lunch. Webinars emulate a full-day workshop, but spread the lectures over five weeks. You drop by when it’s convenient—you can even take a refresher, since the materials remain online for six months after the webinar ends. You can…

  • Participate in a dynamic discussion with other participants
  • Vote in polls to find out how your organization stacks up against your peers
  • Follow links to pertinent websites
  • Download useful handouts that are worth hanging onto
  • Establish connections with fellow participants that will last long after the webinar is over

Thousands of communicators have participated in Shel Holtz Webinars since Shel began offering them in early 2002, and surveys conducted at the conclusion of each webinar have shown a remarkably high rate of satisfaction. This new redesign of the website was undertaken to address some of the issues raised in the surveys, making it easier than ever to participate.
