The Concussion Legacy Foundation Media Project’s Concussion Reporting Workshop PRO is designed for working professionals with limited time. The curriculum is a modified version of the curriculum taught at more than 30 of the nation’s top journalism schools and is designed for working sports media professionals. Workshop PRO trains sports media pros how to cover concussions accurately and with confidence.
Workshop PRO was first presented to a group of top U.K. sportswriters in February 2021 and has since been presented to BT Sport, Major League Baseball, and TSN. If your organization is interested in bringing Workshop PRO to your team, please fill out the form at the bottom of this page.
Based on the successful concussion reporting curriculum we’ve developed with sports media professionals like Bob Costas, Workshop PRO covers:
• Why accurate concussion reporting matters
• How changing the concussion culture will help protect athletes’ health
• Our five most-important lessons for concussion reporting
Workshop PRO is designed to be one hour in length, but CLF customizes each Workshop PRO presentation to your organization’s specific needs, the sports your talent covers, and your available time frame.
If you’re interested in bringing Workshop PRO to your newsroom, please submit the request form and our team will be in touch to discuss the details.
