About This Course
The media landscape today is different and perhaps, more challenging. Besides the traditional media, organisations have to understand and work with the digital and social media.
The media is an important tool through which organisations could influence public opinion and key stakeholders. Knowing how to engage and work effectively with the media is thus a critical skill. One must not only be familiar with the various tools of media engagement but must also understand the media�s agenda and interests especially in a crisis.
