Are you tasked with being the face of your organization’s public message but unsure if you have all the right tools?
This engaging, two-day training is designed for public information officers and leaders who oversee public messaging and want a clearer, more strategic approach. Through interactive discussion, real-world case studies, and hands-on exercises, we’ll help you sharpen how you communicate, whether you’re sharing good news, correcting misinformation, or managing a high-stakes crisis.
From social media updates to news conferences, you’ll learn how to deliver clear, credible messages across the full spectrum of public communication. The course blends proven communication principles with practical application in a low-pressure, adult-learning environment.
You’ll leave with more confidence, stronger skills, and a strategic roadmap you can use immediately.
Training topics include:
The course capstone, mock news conferences, allows you to practice handling the tough questions under the stress of the lights in a safe, risk-free environment, with valuable feedback provided by an experienced communicator.
