What our students say
While I’ve read several books and taken other courses on crisis communications, I didn’t really feel confident in my ability as a more recent college graduate in strategic communications in interacting with the media.
The Communicating in the Critical Moment course helped me build my confidence. I now use the confidence I gained during the pilot of the course to train others at my company on crisis communications.
This course helped me add to my crisis management skill set by showing me how to confidently and effectively interact with the media, develop key messages, and prepare messaging in advance of a crisis.
