Certificate in Communication and Advocacy

This is one of two Certificates offered by TheCapitol.Net.

Our Certificate in Communication and Advocacy gives public affairs and legislative affairs professionals the background they need to effectively communicate and advocate. Our hands-on training is ideal for government, public affairs, legislative affairs, and public relations professionals, interest groups, law firms, NGOs, and media organizations.

Courses emphasize key skills in media relations, crisis communication, executive briefings, speechwriting, writing congressional correspondence, critical thinking and writing, Internet use in public affairs, and working with Congress and Congressional staff.
