Media training is particularly relevant for public figures, brand ambassadors, spokespersons, executives, and professionals who frequently interact with the media or find themselves in the spotlight. But it is also a great way of preparing oneself for outward facing engagements and events. Good quality media training aims to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively engage with journalists, reporters, and other media representatives and should encompass not only traditional media but new media by way of digital platforms such as podcasts, blogs and online channels. It is important to keep in mind that even when undertaking media training for TV, Radio, newspapers and magazines soundbites from these interviews and features can now be shared across social media so an integrated and holistic approach to media training is essential.
