Our Mission

CNN Academy runs programs around the world to ensure that budding journalists have the skills necessary for the newsrooms of the future.

CNN Academy’s Mission and Objectives

CNN Academy is designed to empower and upskill the next generation of journalists. It builds on a long tradition established by CNN’s founder, Ted Turner, to train and nurture future talent by developing skills, forging links, and opening doors.

From Dublin to Kuala Lumpur, we bring the newsroom to the classroom by connecting participants with CNN’s top correspondents and teaching them what it takes to be a successful multimedia journalist
