Course Overview

The first version of a story about multilingual press releases tends to become the reference version. Silence during a crisis involving this area of communications and media practice is itself a statement. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better this aspect of communications and media practice is rarely technical. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from multilingual press releases, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this strand of communications and media practice is examined from more than one functional angle. What blocks progress on the communications and media practice capability is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The programme takes participants through multilingual press releases end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about this area of communications and media practice under scrutiny. The programme ends where implementation begins, with this aspect of communications and media practice broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
