Training by the Cox Center

cox center logo Training

The Cox Center, in fulfillment of its mission to encourage the development of a free and independent press throughout the world, conducts training workshops for journalists and other communication professionals. Most workshops are held outside the United States and are conducted in collaboration with local organizations and institutions.

Workshop topics are selected by the local organization or institution. Instructors for the workshops come from the University of Georgia, elsewhere in the United States, and the region being served.

All participants in the workshop are expected to contribute insights from their own experiences. Workshops are viewed as an opportunity for an exchange of ideas, and both "instructors" and "students"are expected to learn from the interaction.
