Course Description:

The Intermediate Public Affairs Specialist Course provides continuing public affairs training. Throughout the 10-day course students are immersed in a scenario to learn to solve a communication problem. Students will continuously apply the research, planning,  implementation and evaluation (RPIE) process to determine the relevant audience, the appropriate platform for engagement, and the appropriate command messages. Students learn how to counsel commanders on information and communication matters by advising subject matter experts (SMEs) on how to engage the public, preparing them for the engagement and providing a post engagement analysis of the SME’s performance.
