OSCE Mission to Skopje launches online course on digital investigative journalism techniques

To promote investigative journalism and help media professionals hone their digital investigative skills so they can conduct more thorough research to bring the facts to light, the OSCE Mission to Skopje launched an e-learning course on 15 November 2022.

This e-learning course provides a toolbox for journalists investigating corruption or other high profile cases of public interest. The course includes a number of useful tools and techniques that will help investigative journalists to find more information on various online platforms. The course will help journalists to plan an investigation, conduct successful online searches across platforms and gather information, conduct successful interviews and piece together their findings. Also, the course includes many tips by experienced journalists about how to investigate more thoroughly.

While this e-learning course has been primarily designed for investigative journalists, especially those investigating corruption cases, it is applicable to a broader journalistic audience. We believe that everyone who wants to dig deeper into a topic can benefit from the tools, tips and techniques presented in the free e-learning course. We invite you to check out the course, which is available in English, Macedonian, and Albanian language.
