RTDNA recognizes the financial pressures on the journalism industry and doesn’t want smaller budgets to be a barrier for journalists eager for training and connections. By replacing the annual conference in 2026 with this series of events, it will be easier to meet journalists across the country — and the world —in their local communities.
The RTDNA World Tour is an 18-month series of events that brings the leadership training, networking and education RTDNA is known for across the country and even abroad.
This series of local meet-ups, virtual town halls, RTDNA-hosted events, and training sessions embedded in conferences and events hosted by our partners replaces our 2026 conference.
