Free training in video journalism is being offered in Aberdeen to members of the National Union of Journalists, as part of a programme to help print journalists make the move into other types of media.
The 'digital convergence' training is also being accompanied by training on how to become a more effective freelancer and on how to build a website.
As the courses are being externally funded – including from the Scottish Trades Union Congress – is no cost to members and the NUJ even provides equipment, refreshments and lunch.
The courses on offer are:
Digicon 1 and Short Features for the Web August 19-22
The Effective Freelancer August 27 and 28
Dreamweaver Website development August 23 and 24.
For more information and to book one of the limited spaces available, contact Joan Macdonald on 0141 248 6648/7748 or by email to joanm@nuj.org.uk.
