Through training partnerships in Canada and abroad, the Foundation will help promote excellence in journalism and the news industry. We will provide professional development opportunities for emerging and established journalists, so they can gain practical skills and build on existing expertise, and remain current in an ever-evolving field.

Training early- and mid-career journalists provides knock-on benefits for the industry by ensuring a skilled and competent workforce for the future. It results in higher caliber, ethical journalism, all of which is critical to an informed citizenship and a thriving democracy.
