“Earn Your Press Pass”
The program aims to help editors and publishers navigate the ongoing community newspaper labor shortage by providing turnkey training options for amateur and early-career journalists.
Developed by Kansas Publishing Ventures, the goal of “Earn Your Press Pass” is to provide individuals who have solid reading and writing skills and live in smaller communities with a basic journalism background. Training topics include newspaper basics, industry jargon, interviewing and reporting skills, sourcing considerations, news judgment, headline and cutline writing, AP Style, copy editing and basic photography.
WNA members interested in participating should request access by emailing WNA Executive Director Beth Bennett the name and email address of the employee you wish to sign up.
