Science Media Savvy Express Training – FREE

Science Media Savvy Express offers one-on-one training for researchers to improve the way they communicate key ideas from their work with the wider public. We provide a supportive environment with helpful feedback from experienced media professionals. As an added bonus, participants receive a professionally edited video clip of highlights from their session, which they are free to reuse as they choose. An ideal opportunity for busy researchers seeking practical advice on giving effective media interviews. 

Individual sessions run for 15 minutes throughout the day *WED 28 NOV ONLY* and are free of charge for New Zealand-based researchers.
Spaces are limited — advance sign up required. SIGN UP HERE . Flyer available HERE.
