This course introduces why we think of Europeana’s editorial as storytelling, and helps you to understand what to consider when creating your own blog, such as structure, tone of voice and editorial guidelines. At the end you will be ready to submit your own blog idea to Europeana or to create your own stories for publication elsewhere.

This course is self-driven (you are responsible for ensuring that you have completed a task before moving on) and you will receive a certificate of completion at the end.
