Kaitlyn Wagner and Stephanie Archibald are the fresh faces helping behind the scenes as the fledgling Museum of Central Queensland project enters a new phase...

This project has an incorporated committee and some enthusiastic supporters in the business sector.  It's now ready to broaden community support and involvement. The committee also hopes to create a feedback loop to gauge community opinion.

The CQUniversity students are using their Professional Communication projects to help the museum committee create a public awareness campaign.

Supervised by communications lecturer Celeste Lawson, they are liaising with the committee via Associate Professor Steve Mullins.

"As public relations students we have a great deal to contribute to the committee and to this project; and in return we are being given the opportunity to learn and grow as professionals," Kaitlyn says.

Kaitlyn has longer term aspirations to get involved in political PR campaigns, while Stephanie hope to establish a career in human resources management, using her PR training as a useful tool where possible.

Anyone keen to support the Museum of Central Queensland committee can contact Catherine George via 4922 4779.
