Host a Workshop or Panel
Share your knowledge with the next generation of journalists. Professionals can lead workshops, panels, or newsroom visits that bring real-world insight to students.
One of the most direct ways to shape the future of journalism is by sharing your expertise. Professionals who host PSPA workshops and panels have the opportunity to pass on practical knowledge that goes beyond the classroom, giving students insights into the challenges and opportunities of the industry.
Workshops can cover a wide range of topics: reporting ethics, multimedia storytelling, digital audience engagement, or even the business side of running a newsroom. Panels bring together journalists from different backgrounds, offering students exposure to diverse perspectives and career paths. These programs help bridge the gap between campus reporting and the professional newsroom.
By opening your newsroom doors, leading a panel, or mentoring students, you’ll be giving them the tools to succeed while also investing in the next generation of Philadelphia’s storytellers. Your participation helps build a media ecosystem that values collaboration, representation, and innovation.
