The training was brilliant - both informative and practical. The trainer spent some time explaining the principles of good media work, and we spent time practicing different interviews too. I felt able to ask questions and delve further into areas I wanted to understand more. It was an extremely helpful training course.

Incredibly knowledgeable and friendly facilitators and it was the right amount of guidance and freedom in letting you try and feedback was helpful and constructive to see huge improvements in interviews but also own confidence. Hugely worthwhile course and made me feel so much more comfortable for any upcoming press!

It was very good. I learnt a lot specifically structure and what is most important to say first and when. Vic was very lovely, she spoke us through it very clearly and made me feel very comfortable and supported. I feel much more confident to go on tv and radio now with what I've learnt today. Thank you!

The training helped to build my confidence and provided me with techniques for press/media interviews. The training was incredibly beneficial and the tutors Sean and Victoria were knowledgeable and friendly. I was in Sean's group for the breakout rooms and it was a very supportive environment. Sean was very helpful and understanding throughout. Overall, I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wishing to learn more and understand how to present in interviews, as this training gives you both theoretical techniques and practical sessions to develop your skills. My confidence in this area has grown significantly as a result!
