Course Description
Media Training. Imagine that every time you speak to a healthcare reporter, you get the exact message and even the exact quotes you wanted in the final story. Wouldn't it be great if your medical expertise got into the final story without any distortions?
In this Media Training for Doctors and Healthcare Professionals course, you will learn the following:
* How to look your best on camera
* How to shape a media message
* How to answer health reporters' questions
* How to speak in sound bites
* How to get the exact quote you want in the final story
This media training course is delivered primarily through spoken lectures. Because the skill you are learning is speaking related, it only makes sense that you learn through speaking.
The skill you will learn in this class is not primarily theoretical or academic. It is a skill that requires physical habits. That is why you will be asked to take part in numerous exercises where you record yourself speaking on video, and then watching yourself. Learning presentation skills is like learning how to ride a bicycle. You simply have to do it numerous times and work past the wobbling and falling off parts until you get it right.
This course contains numerous video lectures plus several bonus books for your training library.
TJ Walker has been coaching and media training people on their presentation skills for 30 years. Now, through the power of Udemy's online platform, he is able to give you the same high quality training that he gives in person to CEOs, Fortune 500 executives, and Presidents of countries. Only you can now receive the training at a tiny fraction of the normal fee for in-person training.
How long this course takes is up to you. The longest part of the course involves you speaking on video, critiquing yourself, and doing it over until you like it. But if you get to the point where you love how you look and sound when you present it will be well worth the time spent. And having this skill will save you time for all future presentations in your life.
You can begin improving your media presentation skills right now. You may have an opportunity to speak out as soon as tomorrow, so why waste another day worried that your media presentation skills are not up to high standards. Enroll in this course today.

TJ is excellent: his delivery is engaging and kept my attention throughout all the sessions. As a suggestion for improvement, I believe the content could be updated to reflect a more 2025-oriented perspective, for example by including a section on what’s new in the field.

Very helpful tips. There are very few resources like this one out there. A Worthy purchase
By Flavio Tocci Moreira on 2/6/2022
Media training geral, pouco especifico para médicos. Apesar de ser um conteúdo geral e ser "aplicável" em qualquer área. Medicina é uma área muito específica. Fiquei decepcionado com o conteúdo.
