Access to Tools is a two-hour workshop looking specifically at tools that can be used for investigations. At the CIJ our leading concern is to put the best tools in the hands of investigative journalists, and then grow their expertise in using them. Access to Tools is the perfect way to extend the already impressive reach of our regional network and to get out there into more regional newsrooms, communities, and universities. In this workshop you will be taught a range of investigative tools to enhance your research skills and help you develop stories. This is practical hands-on training that will teach you skills you can take back to your newsroom. Further resources are available at the Google News Initiative Training Center.
