Media Training

REALISTIC. STIMULATING. CHALLENGING.

We offer a range of media training courses in which we share our media and broadcasting experience. Everything from building confidence ahead of an on-air interview to learning how to handle the media during a crisis, our public speaking and media training courses will teach you the skills you need.

 

TELEVISION

If you are appearing on the evening news or on your company’s promotional video, we will train you to cope with the adrenaline and anxiety of performing in front of the camera. We will help you to project confidence and convey your message while being aware of your body language.

 

RADIO

On Air, anything can go wrong. A slip of the tongue or lack of attention can spiral a conversation in the wrong direction. You will learn the skills needed to handle enquiries and succeed in your interviews.

PRESENTATION

Learn how to structure key messages and understand how you can use the media to develop a powerful communications strategy. It’s important to be able to connect with your audience in a clear, concise and engaging way.
