More than ten years of economic and socio-political transition have certainly left a mark on civil society in Central and South-East Europe. Communication inevitably has been affected by this structural changes in a global media landscape, which evolves even more rapidly.
This transformation calls for new and better professional tools for journalists and journalism students.

The training course
The Advanced European Media Training is a programme designed specifically for communication operators in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The course is addressed to journalists and other media professionals and aims to provide them with better professional tools.
In 2007, AEMT trains 15 young Czech and 15 young Slovak journalists and media sector operators through a week of classroom work and training in Prague or Bratislava and a week residential campus in Italy in Rome. Unidea Unicredit Foundation is in charge of the general organisation of the course. It is supported by the Project partners AP Com and Jacques Maritain Institute. The local partner is TOL (Transitions Online) for Czech Republic and Memo98 for Slovakia.
