NYSAFC is pleased to announce that an additional training date has been scheduled for its SAFER-funded Recruitment and Marketing Assistance Training. A training workshop will be held in conjunction with the Suffolk County Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Services on Saturday, October 13, 2012, from 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. in the town of Smithtown, N.Y.
This training is targeted at recruitment coordinators, public information officers and public relations coordinators from volunteer fire departments. It is designed to help volunteer fire departments interact more effectively with their local media and also develop campaigns to help them better market themselves to their communities. The Recruitment and Marketing Assistance Training features speakers with years of experience in fire department media relations, public relations, marketing and fire department recruitment.
During an interactive segment of the training, some participants will also be given an opportunity to practice their new media relations skills in front of a camera. In addition, program instructors will discuss developing and implementing recruitment plans and review some of the best practices in recruiting volunteers.
A registration form will be available on the NYSAFC website in early September.
