TOL runs a variety of programs in post-communist Europe and Central Asia that include workshops, distance learning, and internships – with two main aims: to offer practical journalism training, and to help participants either improve existing media outlets or set up new ones.
Целью академии является обучение участников основным навыкам журналистики, представление новых тенденций и технологий онлайн-журналистики и социальных медиа. Медиа академия придерживается принципа «открытых дверей», который позволяет участникам, независимо от возраста, национальности и места проживания, проходить обучение на курсе.
TOL объявляет набор на курс дистанционного обучения журналистике для сотрудников СМИ и блогеров Центральной Азии «Интернет Безопасность»

"I liked the idea that you really had to do it yourself. Michael was always there for feedback and for solutions, but the article had to come from yourself."

"It was important to go to another country ... because although I can learn about reporting back home it isn't foreign correspondence unless you're somewhere new."
