Communicating an organisation’s key messages is best delivered by members of the organisation itself.  Sure, Net.Mentor can help you create, refine and deliver your communications; but for best results, audiences want to receive messages straight from the ‘horse’s mouth’. Are you confident that you can:

• Understand and communicate the messages you need to deliver?
• Prepare and rehearse your messages in a ‘safe’ environment?
• Deliver a powerful presentation to a small or large audience?
• Talk to the media to ensure your messages are received and printed/broadcast?
• Turn negative perceptions into positive messages?
• Tell the difference between an issue and a crisis?
• Handle media and stakeholder communication in a crisis?
• Identify the right spokesperson to deliver your message?

Net.Mentor Learning has developed communication-based training courses for businesses, public sector and voluntary organisations to fit both time and budget.  Ranging from one-hour ‘taster’ talks, through to two or three day training workshops.

Net.Mentor Learning uses experienced tutors, an interactive style which means plenty of hard work for the attendees and plenty of relevant case studies and examples.

 

Our courses include:

• working with the media
• media interview skills (often known as media training)
• how to brief your own spokespeople
• basic and advanced presentation skills
• public and media relations training including
• writing media releases
• developing key messages
• targeting key media
• web PR
• Writing for the internet – web content, blogs and podcasts
• crisis management – from understanding crisis to scenario planning, desktop and ‘as real’ exercises

We think that training organisations to generate their own communication is far more effective than communicating for them.  However, if you really don’t have the resources or the in-house expertise to handle your own communication, is on-hand to help – even if it’s just to get you up and running after your training.
