Each media training workshop is "hands-on" with as much practical interview experience as possible and we'll help you to identify your strongest speakers. Who sounds compassionate, who is best at "control", which speaker thrives in a studio environment and which prefers the anonymity of the phone?

Starter Packs - for spokesmen with little or no media experience. Each workshop includes tutorials in the basics of handling journalists with lots of interview opportunities and feedback. Our Agenda shows you what happens in this day which works best for up to four people.

Re-enforcer Courses - These sessions work best six months after a basic training workshop. They are intended to revisit some of the "do's and don'ts" of dealing with journalists but the main emphasis is on further practical interview experience with feedback to keep those skills honed.

Refresher sessions - Are exactly what it says on the tin. These are the next stage for clients who have had some training previously and want to brush up their interview skills, perhaps before a product launch or major report which is going to attract lots of media interest.

Quick Fix - A situation has come up where you need to respond quickly to the press and media. You want to make sure that you are getting the right message across and in the best possible way. In this two hour session we will work with you to test your statements and to point out some of the pitfalls and questions that you could face when briefing journalists. This session is intended as an emergency, backup measure only for spokesmen who have already been media trained.

DIY - Let's start with a clean sheet of paper and build a workshop especially for you.

24:7 - Our emergency call out service, is for clients who want to make sure that we'll always be available to support their urgent communications requirements in the case of air accidents, train fatalities, factory explosions etc.

The Party Line - The whole point of giving interviews is to get your message through to the people who matter to you - the business community, the government, your existing or potential customers. When you have more than one spokesman responding, they must all be singing from the same song sheet. This session refines the message and explores ways of making it "live".
