Did you know that Canada’s major funding bodies consider print and broadcast media interviews as a type of research contribution for your CV? VIU’s Strategic Communications team is here to support you as you navigate the world of media interviews. Team members were working print, radio, and TV journalists in our past careers, and we know what reporters are looking for because we have been in their shoes! In this short media training workshop, learn strategies for clearly communicating your research during a media interview and how to prepare for success. Discover the power of the media in boosting awareness about your initiatives – and gaining more funding for them.
