“Overall, I thought that this training was super beneficial for me. I wish that I had taken it 20 years ago! The messaging module was the most helpful for me. The practice was also very useful. Also, the idea that trust, not information, drives public support will definitely change the way that I work in general, and with the media in particular.”
