The Knight Center for Specialized Journalism is a premier national program with a 21-year track record of offering free top-quality seminars for print and broadcast reporters, editors and editorial writers. At Knight Center seminars journalists receive in-depth training in subjects related to their coverage -- law, health, science, society, demographics, national and international affairs. Participants meet like-minded colleagues, get grounded in a new assignment or rekindle enthusiasm for a long-time beat. And results last, as Knight Fellows gain new sources, valuable reference materials and many story ideas.
