Bespoke Media Training

Led by the UK’s leading Journalist Media Trainers

The best way to prepare for going into a studio interview for real is to have that experience in a ‘safe’ environment first. Bespoke Studio Media Training takes place in a professional, central London studio and delegates are grilled on radio and on camera and coached by the UK’s leading journalist media trainers.
 

For clients who don’t require a studio, training can take place either at PA Media’s headquarters in Paddington, London or at their own offices. In both cases, we use our mobile studio set-up (comprising radio and TV equipment, as needed) to ensure a realistic and effective training session.
