ReThink Media understands both the range of training needs of the peace, security and foreign policy community and the unique media challenges that your organization faces. Whether you are learning a new skill, exploring a new media strategy or brushing up on an old one, our trainings are tailored to meet your group's needs.

OUR APPROACH To Training Is:

• To make the training as easily accessible as possible.
• To make the training interactive and ensure time (during and after sessions) to address your organization's questions and circumstances.
• To break the training into easily implementable steps and to back it up with access to the tools and hands on support necessary to put it into practice.
• To tailor the training specifically to the peace, security and foreign policy community and wherever possible to provide best practice examples and case studies to illustrate the point.
• To start with the assumption that participating organizations have limited resources and that whomever is attending the training may also be balancing their communications work with running the organization and/or several other responsibilities.

HERE'S HOW We Deliver:

Monthly Professionals Training Series
ReThink Media Members are provided online access to some of the best media trainers in the business. Topical and live, the trainings cover core issues such as creating a communications strategy, developing relationships with reporters, writing effective press releases, targeting the right audience, op-ed writing, using public opinion data and engaging with "new" media.

"Ongoing Skills Webinars"
ReThink Media's easy to access online communications trainings bring the experts to you saving thousands in travel and time. Attend a live training from your desk or home or if you miss a training, or want to create a communications curriculum for yourself, your board or your staff, select presentations are also available through recorded "Webinars." Each session is typically a 45 - 60 minute on-line video. You can access them when it fits your schedule and review them as often as necessary.

Customized Training
Whether it is providing one-on-one support to a member of your organization, doing an online skills session for just your staff, or doing an in-person training at a gathering of your organization, ReThink Media will help you be more strategic in your media work and planning, teach you how to use the tools that are available and give you the confidence to be an effective spokesperson. Unlike most consultants, we have lots of first hand experience with the unique and difficult aspects of addressing peace and security issues in the media.

Our Best Practices e-Series
Our monthly Skills Builder & Best Practices e-newsletter focuses on one or two media and communications skills each month - usually the same skill featured in our Monthly Professional Training Series. The newsletter includes links to additional resources, tips and best practices and allows you to submit your questions for upcoming topics or download previous issues. Subscribe today.
