2008:
View full schedule here at bottom of the page or monthly calendar below
International
Executive Media and TV Workshops (IEMTW)
The IEMTW is an intensive hands on learning event that helps spokespersons
and media practitioners learn to better engage the media around their particular
issues to increase public support and visibility for the organization.
Expected Results
By participating in this intensive 3 and a ½ day
course you will improve skills in the following three
areas:
- Communicating Strategically: Learn
how to develop clear and concise messages as part
of an overall communication strategy
- Delivering an Effective Interview: Through
3 individual coaching sessions become confident
in delivering the messages your organization wants
to convey
- Building Bridges with the Media: Learn
how to work with the media by first understanding
their perspective
Our methodologies combine individual
coaching sessions with group learning so that what
you learn is internalized and can be easily applied.
The number of participants is deliberately
kept small, to enhance learning retention. Suitable
applicants would include spokespersons of organizations,
project staff as well as communication practitioners.
This training supplements the limited in-house training
usually provided by organizations to senior staff,
and provides a cost effective alternative for organizations
that may have only one or two people to train.

Strategic Communications
for Good Governance Programming Workshop (SCG)
CDC created this course in response
to the growing need to strategically program communication
as a key aspect of any governance project, and to address
the issues of media responsibility that arise from
an increasing emphasis in development programming on
a rights based approach.
Over a period of four days, this workshop highlights
key issues related to governance and the media and
analyzes a variety of themes related to the role of
the media in establishing good governance practices.
The course also looks at the use of community media
and behavior change programmes in relation to good
governance practices.
