Proudly completed the Stukent Crisis Communication "Simternship!" Over the course of this immersive program, I've had the opportunity to sharpen my crisis management, strategic communication, media relations, and social media agility skills.

I think that experiential it it's so critical because once you touch something and you do it and you're responsible for it, you're gonna remember it so much more than me just telling you what it is or having slides that are just here's the bullet points to read off. It's again, it's that they take that experience with them. And even if they might not remember every single thing that they've done, they're like, oh, when I created that social media content and then I went and analyzed the results, I can apply that into any sort of normal campaign that they're gonna run.

I am currently using Stukent courseware in all the classes that I am teaching at Eckerd College. What I really like about Stukent courseware is its ease of use for both, the instructor and the students. The simulations are a great way to apply theory from the book to practice. I always hear from my students that they enjoy doing the simulation and that it helps them understand how to apply the material that we take in class to a real-life example. Simulations provide that important experiential learning component that is critical for the development of the necessary skills that students need when being on the job market.
