1. Blogs: A Free Alternative to a Website?

Although sometimes misunderstood, a blog is a type of website that can
be a solution for organizations or communities who can’t afford a
website or for committees that need to share information with internal
and external stakeholders.  Blogs are easily maintained and can
include commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as
graphics or video. Most importantly, it’s possible to set up a blog
for free.

ACE/ARPA is offering a free training session on Wednesday, June 24th at
10:00 am via a conference call. In less than one hour you’ll have a
blog up and running. To register email Lea Alcantara at
lalcantara@aceleaders.ca. The training will take place via toll free
conference call at 1.866.261.6767, participant code 413749#
