Trainings

Acquire knowledge

 

Practice

 

Transfer

Our seminars and trainings support the development of media skills in order to be able to participate in public communication (self)confidentialy and in a positive way. Participants acquire new knowledge and immediately apply it in practice.

 

Do you have specific ideas about your training on media literacy or international communication? Then talk to us and together we will adapt the training to your needs!

 

So far we have offered trainings on the following topics:

 

  • Content creation for social media

  • Online research like the pros

  • Systematic and critical (international) media monitoring

  • Editorial practice

  • Intercultural communication

  • Empirical methods in a practice-oriented manner

The trainings take place as face-to-face or blended learning events. We always use different learning methods: input from trainers, discussions, self-determined development of content, exercises, feedback, process-oriented learning as well as creativity techniques.
