Alright, I am building a new ‘database.’
Ooh. that sounds sexy, does it not?
OK. Dull boring word for a file that contains a sparkling collection of teaching talent. Your talent - if you fit the bill.
I am recruiting top journalists who know how to teach Web video, multimedia blogging, database mashups, online communities, widget scripting, mobile-journalism techniques and more.
There are new training ventures for Robb Montgomery Consulting and also the digital journalism non-profit, Visual Editors. More and more of my clients are asking for more and more specialized training and are also asking me to organize and produce custom training events.
After a restful holiday, I am looking forward to scrambling the jets again and heading out to work with reporters, editors and colleagues in newsrooms and classrooms near and far.
Here’s the latest working travel schedule for the first half of the new year. Hope to see you soon!
Of course a few of these are TBA - just wanted to give you an early heads up - let me know if there is anything I can do for you while I am in your neighborhood.

I simply call the work we did in Cairo the work of two “fully-trained” journalists.
