Let Poynter help you master the basics of audio, video and multimedia tools, along with social media tools.

We’ll not only teach you how to use journalism’s new tools, we’ll also help you improve your storytelling and give you confidence to navigate the ethical pressure points presented by today’s emerging platforms.

You will leave with the know-how and confidence to grow in a new media world. Most importantly, you’ll change the way you think about storytelling and the future of journalism in our communities.

Guest faculty include Keith Jenkins, the Supervising Senior Producer for Multimedia at NPR, and Darren Durlach, Senior Multimedia Producer for The Boston Globe.
