Seminars & Training

The Iowa Newspaper Foundation focuses on the continued education of Iowa's newspaper staffs.

INA members annually have access to dozens of experts in all fields of the newspaper business through workshops and seminars sponsored by the Iowa Newspaper Foundation. The INA Convention and Trade Show, regional seminars and the Mauck-Stoufer Professional Improvement Workshop are regularly offered, in addition to special training sessions suggested by the INF Seminar Committee. Topics covered by seminars and workshops throughout the year include advertising, copy editing, photography, basic reporting, sportswriting, newspaper design, ag reporting, public notice advertising, online workshops and more. These seminars and workshops are offered to members at a low cost thanks to funding from the Foundation.
