How to fully engage the media
The course has enhanced my desire to engage the media more often and the knowledge gained would be used to produce better press releases and scripts for media

Promote your work well to the right audiences
I feel better equipped to answer questions about my work, or to talk about science more generally, to a wide variety of audiences. Additionally, I will be more mindful of opportunities to publicise my work, where it may not have occurred to me before

Completely involved in the context
The course was taught interactively which made audience to be completely involved in the context. The first day was really fruitful and lots of useful information
