Registration for Online Course for Arab Digital Journalists by SMEX

From Jun 29 to Jul 20, 2015
SMEXbeirut

These days being a citizen journalist means a lot more than simply starting a blog and a Twitter account, posting photos or video, and linking to other websites on the topic at hand. Citizen journalists and community media producers are evolving into full-fledged independent media outlets, managing complex content production processes and strategic outreach plans.

In August, SMEX will launch a new Arabic-language online course in citizen and community media designed by working Arab digital journalists for aspiring Arab digital journalists. The course will cover a wide range of topics, such as social media verification and investigative journalism that will help participants become trusted sources of locally relevant news, analysis, and information.
