NYSAFC has a few open seats still available for its upcoming Recruitment and Marketing Assistance Project Training.
The 3-hour training is targeted at public information officers, public relations coordinators, and recruitment coordinators from volunteer fire departments. There is no cost to attend; however, the training will be limited to 30 participants per site due to the interactive format. Registration will not be accepted on-site.
This training 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. It will feature 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, training speakers will discuss developing and implementing recruitment plans and any participating department with a current recruitment plan is encouraged to bring a copy to share. The training is funded by the association’s SAFER grant award.
The dates and locations of the training are:
-
Saturday, March 24, 2012 – Monroe County – Monroe County Public Safety Training Facility – 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
