Great news for those of you who want to take charge this year: We extended our application deadline for the Leadership Academy for Diversity in Media to Friday, Feb. 11.
This is a tuition-free, in-person program in October intended for leaders of color. It's competitive, hence the months-in-advance deadline, and worth the effort.
Take it from Brandon López, digital media manager at WPBF 25 and graduate of the 2019 academy: "One of the best experiences of my professional career. I gained so much knowledge, had access to some of this industry’s most respected journalists, and made relationships I wouldn’t have been able to build if it weren’t for Poynter."

TV Power Reporting Academy
Online and in-person program, St. Petersburg, Florida, April 5-28

TV Power Reporting is one of Poynter’s signature seminars, and our 2022 academy will once again be led by senior faculty for broadcast and online, Al Tompkins. For more than 25 years, TV reporters, photojournalists, visual journalists and multimedia journalists have relied on Poynter to build their reporting, writing and ethical decision-making skills.

Our visiting faculty in 2022 include one of the nation’s most celebrated investigative reporters, the only NPPA Photographer of the Year who is also the Editor of the Year and a CNN correspondent who, for hours, covered protests in the streets of Minneapolis live on international television. You will hear from one of journalism’s most respected voices on media ethics and a Peabody and Murrow-winning journalist who shoots, writes and edits all of his own investigative stories.
Cost: $499. Apply by Friday, Feb. 18.
If you are a member of AAJA, NABJ, NAHJ, NAJA or NLGJA, 50% tuition scholarships are available, thanks to CNN.

NEW! Building an Ethical Newsroom
Online program, March 8-24
This live online seminar will help journalism leaders strengthen their ethical infrastructure so they can confidently navigate their newsroom’s natural pressure points.


Poynter’s senior vice president and ethics chair Kelly McBride will be your guide. Using her decades of experience as an ethics coach and public editor, she will reveal the methods she uses to assess a newsroom’s ethical strengths and weaknesses. You will explore the dozens of factors – both concrete policies and soft qualities – that contribute to a healthy environment for making ethical decisions. With McBride’s stewardship, you will diagnose your own individual capacity, and, when possible, the capacity of your news organization.
After the three-week, six-session course, you will have templates for modern ethics policies, communication skills to address ethical conflicts as they arise, and leadership strategies to facilitate a culture of ethics in your newsroom.
Cost: $450.
