Black Press Media reporter Erin Haluschak has been selected as one of 90 female journalists from around the world to attend the Poynter Institute 2019 Leadership Academy for Women in Digital Media, in St. Petersburg.

This will be Haluschak91裸聊视频檚 second experience with Poynter Institute programs. In 2018 she attended a one-day symposium in Los Angeles, which was somewhat of a spin-off course derived from the 2018 Leadership Academy.

91裸聊视频淭he number of applications for the five-day course at Poynter is extremely high, so last year the institute decided to expand its offerings by hosting one-day seminars in New York City and L.A.,91裸聊视频 said Haluschak, a reporter at the Comox Valley Record. 91裸聊视频淸At] the course last year, I was surrounded by an unbelievable cohort of female journalists from a variety of media outlets around North America. I was able to see how together, women can be more effective leaders in journalism by developing a deeper understanding of the environment in which they work, and gained tools that shaped my environment for the better. One theme that truly carried with me is when women can change the journalism industry, we can make democracy stronger.

91裸聊视频淎fter attending last year, I left very inspired and wanting more - which is why I applied to the full leadership academy.91裸聊视频

She said that while she was hopeful of being selected for this year91裸聊视频檚 academy, she was not expectant. The Poynter Institute received more than 400 applications from around the world.

91裸聊视频淚 honestly was not expecting to be chosen for the program - it91裸聊视频檚 a very humbling experience. Hundreds and hundreds of women from news outlets from around the world applied, and I was one of [90] women to be chosen. That91裸聊视频檚 incredible, and I91裸聊视频檓 very honored. To me, the women included in my class truly represent leadership in digital journalism, and I look forward to sharing this experience with them.91裸聊视频

There are a total of three academies in 2019, with 30 participants in each. Haluschak will be attending the first course, from Feb. 24-March 1. She is the only Canadian print journalist in this academy.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 amazing to represent Black Press as the only Canadian print media in the program; I91裸聊视频檓 very curious, and am looking forward to the differences in culture and leadership - if any - between American and Canadian newsrooms,91裸聊视频 she said. 91裸聊视频淲e also have a journalist joining the program from India, so I91裸聊视频檓 excited to share stories and experiences with other journalists around the world.91裸聊视频

Each guest speaker and session is deliberately chosen with that in mind,91裸聊视频 said Katie Hawkins-Gaar, the lead faculty for Poynter91裸聊视频檚 2019 Leadership Academies for Women in Digital Media.
