Currently we do not have an Editor Boot Camp on the training schedule. If you are interested in this type of training, please e-mail jennifer@ire.org.
The computer-assisted reporting boot camp for editors is an intensive
three-day workshop tailored to the needs of newsroom managers. This includes
top editors or news directors, managing editors, AMEs, assignment editors
and other editors directing reporters.
The boot camp will teach editors the things they need to know to make
CAR successful in their newsrooms. They'll experience just enough hands-on
work to understand what their reporters are tackling and what more is
possible. They'll also hear from other editors who have been there before
them, and not only survived, but flourished. They'll hear how to negotiate
for electronic records without turning to a lawyer right away.
Like all IRE training sessions, they will leave with practical suggestions
to put into use back home.

Here’s what participants of the 2004 Editor Boot
Camp had to say about their experience:
“Great program! You expanded my thinking on what is doable.” “A big thanks. Now perhaps I can work more closely with our
CAR experts and help those who aren’t become excited about
the possibilities. Short, but sweet.” “This was completely useful. Love the real-world examples,
with real data. I feel much better prepared to lead my newsroom
in CAR and investigative reporting.” “This session was very useful in introducing me to what challenges
newsrooms face if they are serious about more database newsgathering.” |
