Registration continues for individual modules for the first round of the new IRE-approved Investigative Journalism Editing Program at Arizona State's Howard Center for Investigative Journalism.

This is a self-paced online program. Registration ended at noon MST on Jan. 13 for the first module, so the certificate for completing all 12 modules is no longer available for this first round, but the other modules are still available and participants can receive a badge for each one completed. Cost is $300 per module. Each module will be open for two weeks. The next module is "Building a Diverse Team." See all modules at the program website.

The next full round begins in June.

The program is for editors who seek to develop their skills in managing investigative stories and projects, reporters who seek to move into investigative editing or any journalist who wants to sharpen their watchdog skills.

Join us March 6-9 at NICAR25 in Minneapolis. IRE's annual data journalism conference offers essential training in the latest computer-assisted reporting tools, tips and trends.

Discounted registration rates are available for students, freelancers and early-career professionals. Save on travel and lodging, and learn more about upcoming NICAR deadlines: ⦿ Enter the T-shirt design contest by Jan. 27. ⦿ Apply for conference mentorship through Feb. 7. ⦿ Pitch Lightning Talks until Feb. 9. ⦿ Special hotel rates close Feb. 11.

In addition to general DBEI training, we also offer deeper-dive sessions on specific topics, such as: how to cover historically marginalized groups, and how to cover the queer and trans community.
