Media relations training

Speak comfortably and confidently to the media


Is dealing with a reporter worth your time? The quick answer is: yes. Media relations lays the groundwork for public interest in your work. Even the smallest news appearances, repeated over time, builds public recognition, credibility and reputation for your work.

A media interview is an opportunity to tell your story. It is an opportunity to profit from, not an ordeal to be feared – provided you are aware of and become comfortable with a few simple concepts and practical facts about the news media.

We offer media training to groups or individuals throughout the campus. There's no charge for the service – just your time.

Through our media training, you will:

  • Take the opportunity to practice on-camera exercises
  • Learn about effective messaging
  • Find out how the media world works and what their expectations are (not to mention the importance of checking your hair and teeth before going on camera!).
  • Become more comfortable and confident with the process so when the media comes calling it's all about the opportunity, not the anxiousness.
