The European Journalism Training Association (EJTA) is a formal network of authorized European journalism training institutes. The network has about 80 members from approximately 30 different European countries to date. The non-profit organisation was founded in Brussels in 1990.
The most important aim of the Association is to stimulate European co-operation in journalism education between universities and lifelong learning institutions, and to develop and to improve journalism education in Europe. Each year in October EJTA has its Annual General Meeting (AGM) together with thematic seminar. In May, EJTA organizes the Teachers’ Training. Both events are organized at one of the member institutions.
Apart from live meetings EJTA organises online talks during which members discuss important topics in journalism teaching and training.
