Appearing in front of a television camera, or speaking  on the radio can be a daunting task for many. However, these two media are the most effective in reaching a  mass audience quickly. The ability of a company to respond to the demands of television and radio is vital in conveying a message.

Recognition provides solutions to these challenges  in the form of specialist media training courses. Two distinct courses are offered, one in TV and Radio and the other in Crisis Management. Courses can be carried out in our own in-house media training suite or at the client’s offices. A minimum of 4 participants is required for each course.

Both courses are run by the Partners who have many years’ experience in radio and television.

TV AND RADIO TRAINING
It important that key personnel in your organisation are able to deal confidently and effectively with these media when necessary.

Recognition offers a one-day media training course for those who may have to be placed in a live or recorded interview situation. The course covers an introduction to broadcasting and interview techniques for radio and television, including recording and ‘doorstepping’. Participants experience the interview process in a real radio broadcasting studio and are filmed by national television crews.

By the end of the course, all participants should be competent in responding to live media requests.

CRISIS MANAGEMENT TRAINING
If a crisis arises you need staff who can handle the situation. They need to be able to cope with the media, know their legal rights in relation to the press and understand how to raise the right issues with the media.

Recognition’s Crisis Management course teaches essential ‘on camera’ techniques as well as the right way to respond to aggressive questioning. It equips each participant with an understanding of the media and the ability to run the gauntlet of journalists, photographers and TV/radio interviewers.
