As part of the BGAJ’s CPD programme available to all members, we are holding a ‘Writing for lineline audiences’ training course on Thursday, 27th April 2017.

What do online audiences want from your material – and how do you make it engaging?

This one-day session takes a practical look at the challenges of writing material for online audiences. It will consider how people read online, plus how to structure and write online news, long-form pieces and social media updates.

The session will feature hands-on exercises, plus plenty of opportunity for discussion, information-sharing and questions.
