Excellent online science communication training for a fiver every Friday
Science communication and public engagement expert, Steve Cross, has brought together an excellent bunch of skilled and knowledgeable trainers to offer affordable and useful training every Friday lunchtime.
The Autumn sessions are now available to book, including on communicating without getting sued (probably), telling science stories, evaluation, getting commissioned by newspapers and magazines and many more to help science communicators of all kinds.
Sessions take place every Friday lunchtime on Zoom. You sign up for each session individually, so there's no commitment.
