RNTC Media Training
With 50 years of experience in journalistic training, RNTC is an expert in delivering accredited courses to media-makers around the world. RNTC has trained participants from and in developing and fragile contexts as well as the developed world. We are skilled at training journalists and media makers in understanding key development issues and training them to tell these stories more powerfully through traditional channels (print, radio, and television) and digital channels (web content; tweets, blogs, and vlogs). In developing and fragile contexts there is often a need for both.
RNTC offers concrete steps for critically minded media-makers to turn their aspirations into realities and act as guardians of public interest. RNTC’s training empowers media-makers to develop successful creative content and media formats that facilitate dialogue and debate among young people and those in power. Market segments that were trained by RNTC include: media outlets, non-governmental organizations, civil society organizations, think tanks, universities, and governments.
RNTC works at the intersection of tradition and digital media, civil society, and advocacy. As a result of our training, strategic partnerships, and global networks, we create an enabling environment for media landscapes to be pluralistic, independent, capable, and inclusive of citizens’ needs. Citizens access quality content and engage in discussion through media campaigns, to make important life decisions and hold decision-makers to account.
About RNTC OLA
RNTC combines tools and platforms to create interactive and inspiring online training where RNTC’s learn by doing approach is integrated.
Our online training is offered as trainer-led online training or blended online training and coaching. Our Online Learning Academy (OLA) allows for both self-directed and blended learning using practical case studies, video, animation, quizzes, and activities to stimulate distance learning.
RNTC offers a range of open and tailor-made online courses. We offer plenty of individual support from our expert trainers and interaction with both trainers and fellow course participants. This is not a boring lecture series, but rather an interactive learner-centered training that gets you to produce output along the way, individually, or in groups.
