Testimonials from past attendees Kathy Simmonds, PR and marketing, Checkatrade.com “Every person involved in writing press releases of any kind should do this course. I gained so much knowledge from it and it has already made a difference to the way we do press releases at Checkatrade. My managing director believes it was the best money we had spent on a course in a long time.” Aidan Flynn, Nido Marketing “Although I had some idea of how to write a press release, I had no idea about how to relate to the journalist and was unclear of the exact format I should follow. Thanks to the course I have increased my knowledge of this. Well presented, interesting and most importantly, very practical - delivered by a true knight of the English language!” Frances D'Ardenne, Manager of Corporate Brand and Public Relations, Bowlplex “A thoroughly interesting course which gave an excellent overview of all aspects of press releases. I now have a greater understanding and insider knowledge of what makes a successful press release which will prove invaluable.” Emma Wickenden, VAMU communications assistant, TimeBank “The course covered many aspects of press release writing; it was concise, well delivered and is good value for money compared to many other more expensive courses. Rob's delivery of the course was excellent.” Jenny Hayden, guild administrator, The Guild of Master Craftsmen “The course increased my confidence a great deal and the exercises were useful. It was very good value for money and masses of useful content for the fairly short space of time.” Rebecca Fairbarn, PA to the executive director Developing Organisation and “Community for the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust The course definitely meets its aim and I have seen an improvement in my press writing skills already.” Vix Novissimo, Whistle PR “The course was enormously informative.
