Below are examples of some of the courses we offer although we can tailor sessions to individual needs.

All courses are very 'hands-on'. Interviews will be recorded on camera and analysed and copies will be available at the end of the course on either DVD or video.

Participants will be given a summary of the course plus a handy credit card sized checklist of the key points needed when dealing with the media.

Individual written assessments will be sent soon after completion of the course.
