Very useful, has made me much more confident in approaching media opportunities.
Today, was an excellent experience and a day well spent. It was run at a good pace and there was enough time for reflection and preparation. It was lovely to meet other academics and learn about their research. Tasneem and Jane were wonderfully honest and kind, with some fantastic tips and advice. Thank you very much. :-)
Training is very helpful to progress in media skills.
Good reminder of the key points to bear in mind in media interviews and great chance to practice
Great training opportunity to gain confidence for media interviews
A little bit of theory with a lot of practical application and review
I felt at ease and comfortable from the start as I had been somewhat apprehensive as it had been some years since any official media training. The tutors especially Damian were very adept at enabling us to improve as we went along. They encouraged me, to be me with gentle coaching which really showed in my last two interviews. Not an easy subject to get across and some excellent tips. Loved the bridging and differences between good and bad. Worthwhile and the time flew by which is always a good sign. From start to finish, including Laura at base assisting with queries, it was a very hands on and positive experience. Thank you!
Really focused training and at the end of the training i definitely feel more confident in being able to handle questions i am not prepared for.
