The LEARNO.NET platform is journalism training for the 21st
century. It is open to anybody with an interest in digital storytelling,
accessible worldwide, and developed by an international A-list of instructors
including Nicholas Whitaker and Simon Rogers from Google News Lab, Craig
Silverman from Buzzfeed Canada, and renowned data journalism practitioners Paul
Bradshaw and Alberto Cairo.
Following the success of the EJC’s renowned Data Journalism
Handbook, and its associated ‘Doing Journalism with Data’ MOOC, LEARNO.NET is
the Centre’s latest step aimed towards promoting best practice journalism
through digital storytelling.
"With the launch of LEARNO as EJC's online learning
platform we want to complement the on-location trainings the European
Journalism Centre has been offering over the years. With LEARNO we are reaching
out to a new generation of journalists and new media multipliers world wide,
and we hope that, as the platform grows, it will develop into the default
destination for anyone interested in future-proofing their essential
journalistic skills."
