During the next 18 months, European Centre for Broadcast Journalism will deliver a number of week-long courses for radio and/or TV, either in our Centre in Belgrade or as in-house consultancies.

The idea is to identify the training needs of broadcast media across Serbia and Montenegro through meetings and discussions, which would then provide the basis for an adequate course to be designed.

·        ECBJ was asked to assist the Montenegrin state TV in upgrading journalistic skills. Our international trainer is spending a week in Podgorica in June 2003, where he is running the Conversion course for radio journalists who want to become TV journalists. The training is also backed up by ECBJ technical support.

·        In June and September 2003 we are working in the Nis region on developing current affairs and news programme as well as breakfast programme. The training is conducted as in-house consultancies with several TV stations as well as in our Centre in Belgrade.

·        ECBJ has agreed a week of Voice Training for presenters with Radio B92. This will be conducted in September 2003, with a follow-up stage in November 2003.

·        In July and November 2003 we will be in Montenegro, where we will focus on news, current affairs and breakfast time programme. If your TV station is in Montenegro and is interested in receiving such training, please contact us for more information or simply fill in our online application form (see: apply) and we will contact you.
