Training

Developing the potential of your staff

Media training is about investing in people - your staff. They are your most precious resource.

What it takes to be a media trainer

Media trainers must have recent, valid experience of all they teach. They will not earn the respect of course participants if they can't relate to the issues they face.

Learning management systems

Learning Management Systems (LMS) are increasingly becoming the digital backbone of all media training, in particular Training of Trainers (ToT) courses.

Wanted, your media know-how

Have you got any journalism expertise that you are willing to share with others? If so, please get in touch.

Designing a media training plan

A well-designed media training plan could make the difference between the success and the failure of a media business.

Basic rules for delivering training

One of the first steps in delivering training is to articulate the ground rules. Participants need to know what to expect and what is expected of them

The qualities required for media training

A trainer must not shout at participants or get into loud arguments. They must not make those attending their courses feel small or humiliate them.
