What our delegates think

Good refresher from the training I did a number of years ago. Great to have a safe space to practice a new story that we haven’t yet landed all the messaging.

Excellent training day, with lots of tips and advice on how to prepare for and deliver interviews over the phone, on TV and on radio.

The training was very insightful on how to prepare for a radio or TV interview. There were lots of useful tips to help keep the interview on message and ways in which you can make that message more focused to reach an audience. The exercises were practical and helped me rehearse for interviews in a safe setting and then time to reflect on the learning from that experience and to adjust my response in a real time interview setting. This training was time well spent and delivered by experienced professionals who were able to show me and my colleagues techniques that upskilled us to be better prepared for when we're next asked to take part in an interview.

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.

The course was clearly designed for rapid improvement. The day felt very fast but the sections built on each other, such that you did not realise how much progress you actually made until the final presentation.
