What solutions journalism has to offer health care reporters
Solutions journalism goes beyond reporting on problems and explores the ways organizations and communities are trying to solve them. Learn what solutions journalism is, what it is not, and why it is so relevant to health care reporting. Get tips for generating and pitching great story ideas and for crafting a compelling narrative. Julia Hotz of the Solutions Journalism Network and Meryl Davids Landau and Sarah Kwon, two freelance reporters who have written solutions-focused stories, will guide the way. AHCJ’s freelance community correspondent Barbara Mantel will moderate.

Finding Stories With Data
This online course is for journalists who are new to data journalism. In four, 1.5–hour workshops, participants will learn what data is available, how to find it, retrieve it, and find facts and patterns in it that will lead to stories. These are hands-on, screen–sharing workshops with regular Q&As, and participants are expected to contribute. Available to journalists worldwide, although journalists in the U.S. will have to get up early. The sessions are not recorded.
