The Media Relations team offers group media training workshops on campus twice a year, one in the fall and one in the spring. The all-day workshops run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on a Friday and are targeted at faculty, administrators and staff whose research or area of expertise is newsworthy, or whose position on campus involves handling media calls. The workshops are limited to six participants, and focus on how to handle media requests, how to craft and deliver one’s message and on-camera interview practice. There is a nominal fee of $50 per person, and lunch is included.
