This course will help the public affairs soldier to do the following: Determine the scope of public affairs responsibility by determining the size of the geographic area to be covered and the number of units or activities requiring PAO support. Determine the type and size of units or activities for which the PAO is responsible. Determine whether coverage can be improved and, if so, consider establishing a beat system. If one is already in place, look at modifying it. Beats are normally based on one of the following: Geographical Area. Under this system, each reporter is assigned a section of the installation (northeast sector, southeast sector, northwest sector, southwest sector, for example). He is then responsible for all the news in his area, whatever the subject. Functional Area. Under this system, each reporter is assigned a subject (sports, health, pay and benefits, youth activities, training, etc.) and he is responsible for stories pertaining to that subject, no matter where they are found. This system can also be used to assign reporters to cover specific units or agencies. Select a beat system based upon the size of the command or installation and the size of the news staff. You may consider the interests and abilities of the journalists, but don't allow them to "specialize" for the duration of their tour in your PAO. A crosstrained staff will give your shop more depth in the long haul. Brief the journalists on their responsibilities. Make sure they know their beats, the importance of establishing and maintaining contacts, the need to check with contacts regularly, and the importance of being polite, punctual and professional.
