The coronavirus pandemic is stretching journalists and newsrooms in unprecedented fashion. To help, News University will make Poynter experts available for live, 30-minute Q&A video sessions covering the topics you need help with now.

These On Poynt e-learning sessions are designed to deliver practical tips that you can immediately bring to your reporting and coverage. We’ll explore topics including ethical decision-making, managing through crises, ensuring diversity in coverage, successfully managing remote teams and sorting through the mountains of data. Let us know which Poynter expert you want to hear from and which topics are of most interest.

To sign up for an upcoming On Poynt — or to revisit past sessions on topics including ethics, crisis management and audience engagement — check out the full catalog here.

Poynter and News University are offering On Poynt sessions tuition-free to serve journalists in a time of need. Support comes from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and other donors. If you’re able, please consider making a small donation toward this work by visiting poynter.org/support.

Poynter experts are also available to train virtually in your newsroom, classroom or workplace. Simply fill out a short form to get the conversation started.
