Course Overview
Journalists covering precise editorial work are working to a deadline you do not control. The first version of a story about the communications and media practice capability tends to become the reference version. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from this aspect of communications and media practice, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting precise editorial work, ready to be adapted internally. The difficulty is not agreeing that this part of communications and media practice matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The programme is built to be used, and every section of this strand of communications and media practice it covers ends in something applicable. The level assumes working familiarity with the communications function but no prior formal training in precise editorial work. Mature organisations treat the communications and media practice discipline as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for the communications and media practice capability survives a hostile question.
