In-house course
Getting published
Who is this course for?
This course has been designed for architects who wish to have a better understanding of Public Relations and how to make it work for their businesses and for marketing directors and managers looking to maximise the effectiveness of public relations in an architectural world.
To get the most from your portfolio of work, you need to use the media - and that means more than just ringing a professional magazine once a building is completed. Good Public Relations will promote both the design and the intellectual skills of a practice. This course looks at appropriate ways of managing and promoting an architectural portfolio through Public Relations.
Course format
This is a half-day course. In keeping with the Colander philosophy, it is intensely practical, using an interactive workshop style and working through practical examples of press communications. A comprehensive bound set of course notes will be provided. Delegate numbers are limited in order to maintain the interactive quality of the training.
