    The Thomson Reuters Foundation is offering a course entitled “Writing and reporting news.” The course will focus on practical exercises aimed at improving journalists’ writing and news reporting skills. It will cover accuracy, structure, and clarity. The course will help journalists recognize their good habits and provide them the time and space to work on their weak points. It combines face-to-face teaching in London, England, with an online module to be completed over six months.

    Applicants must currently be working as journalists, have two years’ professional experience, and have a good level of spoken and written English. Bursaries are available for journalists from the developing world. Deadline: December 12, 2012.
