Introducing New Partner ► RT Academy

We are very glad to introduce RT Academy as a new partner of BRICS+ Universities Association. RT Academy is RT's multilingual journalism training program for different world regions. RT is a global TV news network providing news, current affairs and documentaries in nine languages.

RT Academy's courses are available in English, French and Chinese and open for professionals in journalism and blogging, aged 19-65, striving for professional and personal growth. The courses are free of charge. The applications can be submitted on the RT Academy website.

The RT Academy program takes a comprehensive approach to the news creation process – from pitching a story to news gathering to post-production and distribution. It covers the best practices of working with social media, finding and creating high-quality video content, using a variety of technical tools in news production, and more. Top specialists from RT – award-winning executives, news presenters, correspondents, producers, editors, content creators, social media managers – will share their experience with content verification, blogging, building a community around your media brand, using AI in news production, on-camera delivery, conducting great interviews, and much more.

"RT Academy is a great opportunity for journalists and bloggers from all over the world. I am very impressed that each talented young blogger or keen journalist can learn from one of the best and the largest global media networks – directly from RT. And it is extremely important that RT Academy does not charge any tuition fees for sharing their knowledge and expertise and that the key admission condition is to have some relevant professional experience and ability to write interesting and concise scripts. To my mind such policy demonstrates strong RT's commitment to the society development thought contributing to the true, fair and free press and media development and creating education and professional growth opportunities in the sphere of international journalism. I am sure this initiative will inspire many correspondents and bloggers from Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America and let them bring to life the stories which are really important for people", – said Yulia Yakovleva, Marketing Executive Officer, BRICS+ Universities Association.
