Training Solutions

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail

Complete, inclusive and discreet media training solutions

Media training, from strategic planning to tactical engagement, is essential for companies which value their communication and reputation.

We will train your team or individuals to identify stories, understand how the media work and create opportunities, how to respond in a crisis, identify and create successful and enduring messages, and more specifically, provide top level interview training and tips and tricks.

Social media is also a critical influence - training helps our clients to understand, work and influence this dynamic and multi-faceted environment. This can be done in a classroom setting, or as a one-to-one at the client's premises. The result will be new skills and confident self-knowledge to manage the media effectively.

We have worked with Cabinet Ministers on strategic messages, and with junior staff talking about their day-to-day experience. We have helped organisations prepare for critical emergencies, and also for product launches. Since 2009 Crown Media has been trusted by the UK Ministry of Defence as their only external provider for media training. Our international corporate, Government and military client list is extensive. All have benefited from our expertise and experience. And all ask us back to repeat the experience with new personnel and to top-up the skills.

Crown Media turned a daunting prospect for most into an opportunity to communicate passion through preparation and focus on delivering often key messages clearly.“
