Each year, the Pennsylvania NewsMedia Association and PNA Foundation provide events and training for the various departments of news media companies. These opportunities allow news media organizations to gather virtually for webinars and roundtables or in-person for regional or statewide workshops and events to expand their revenue generation, management skills, and industry knowledge through educational sessions, outstanding speakers and networking opportunities.

Please help us plan the best training opportunities for you by completing our 2026 Training Survey.
