The focus during this session will be on media at national, state and local level. You will learn how your organisation will benefit from building relationships at all levels.

The training will provide hands-on experience for all participants, including material on the do?s and don?ts when working with the media, and tips and examples for developing and enhancing relationships across your organisation.

This is more than working with the media, this session brings together the complete picture ? building your reputation and growing support for your organisation in the community.
