This unit of competency provides participants with knowledge and skills to prepare and present a media release, and to participate in press conferences and impromptu interviews.
Competencies attained in this unit apply to the greyhound, harness and thoroughbred codes of the industry. Consequently when performance criteria are applied they will relate to either the greyhound code or harness code or the thoroughbred code and statements of attainment will reflect this distinction.
This unit can be contextualised for other industries while also maintaining the integrity of the unit.
This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to work effectively with the media. It identifies the various forms of media and the benefits of working cooperatively with the media, as well as strategies for dealing with both positive and negative publicity.
This unit of competency operates in workplace environments of racing administration, stables, kennels, racecourses and public areas.
Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit. Check with your State Principal Racing Authority for current license or registration requirements.
