Hosted by Mike Miller and Muriel Bañares, Brown·Miller Communications.
Join us for a special day-long interactive media training workshop for Champion Provider Fellows. You’ll learn the differences between various types of media outlets and what you need to know to successfully work with each, the qualities that make a story newsworthy, how to craft and deliver a compelling story and pitfalls to avoid when working with the press. The training presented by Brown·Miller Communications (BMC) includes interactive activities, mock interviews and constructive critiques.
