Free training

Amy Webb, a journalist-turned-consultant who's got a very tuned eye towards the future, just announced she's offering a free training session for journalists. It's designed for people who've been laid off, to help them get realigned to a changing job market, but I might do it anyway. I went to a session she ran at the Online News Association 2008 convention, it was really eye-opening.
It's at 3pm eastern online and by phone.

There's also a ONA-sponsored webinar on data visualization that I'm going to watch for sure, at 2pm same day. That's 30 bucks if you're a Joe Sixpack but free if you're an ONA member. I can't remember if I've paid dues this year yet. Days when the office pays for professional memberships are long over, I'm afraid.
