Events Planned for Victoria in 2012!

There are regular IAP2 events held in Victoria. If you'd like us to keep you up to date on what's coming up, click here to sign up for our regular emails or check back soon to see what else we have on offer!

The training program was developed to meet the needs of IAP2 members. IAP2 trainers worked with practitioners from around the world to develop foundational tools that transcend national and cultural boundaries. Even advanced practitioners will find useful techniques to assist in working with the public and clients to establish effective public participation programs.

All three courses are presented in an experiential learning environment that provides students with the opportunity to explore their own public participation challenges with their instructor and peers. Interactive exercises and practical tips are used to enliven the basic theory and reference materials presented throughout each module and reinforce skills that participants can put to immediate use.

IAP2 is delivering the Emotion, Outrage and Public Participation course in Victoria in 2012!

Building on IAP2's internationally recognised best practices in public participation, and the work of Dr Peter Sandman, an expert in risk and crisis communication, this new course looks at emotion and outrage and how to identify and address these factors in public participation programs. This is the course for any practitioner dealing with the key issues facing our communities at this time.
