How to prepare

1. Please prepare a short 2-3 minute scripted media presentation.

2. Ask your colleagues to prepare 4-5 questions that the media might ask you if you were representing your organisation. The questions should be sealed in an envelope so that you cannot see them prior to the training. These questions will be used in media scenarios throughout the course.

Please wear comfortable clothes. On day two participants are asked to bring a professional outfit to change into for different media presentation scenarios. We will also need a current colour head shot to assist our stylist in selecting the right products for hair, makeup and wardrobe.

We welcome you from 8:30 am for tea & coffee. Please arrive by 8:45 am to ensure a prompt start.

Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea will be provided.
