SputnikPro is an international educational project in the field of media, initiated by the international agency Sputnik.
The SputikPro course for journalists of the online newspaper Flash Tchad ended with a seminar by Victoria Budanova, the head of Sputnik Africa.
She highlighted innovations and new technologies in the media sector. Sputnik's welcome video, featuring an address to the African audience by the CEO of the international media group Rossiya Segodnya, used artificial intelligence technologies for its narration and impressed the Chadian colleagues.
"It is gratifying that our experience of using artificial intelligence tools has aroused the keen interest of colleagues from Flash Tchad. The world around us is changing, and so are the media. Modern African media are interested in using the latest digital technologies to improve their competitive positions in the media market," Budanova noted.
The SputikPro online course for Flash Tchad journalists marked the first SputikPro module in Chad since the launch of the project. Throughout the program, Chadian media professionals were introduced to podcasting technologies through a master class led by Sputnik Africa correspondent Anthony Lefebvre.
SputnikPro is an educational initiative designed to provide journalists, press secretaries, bloggers, and students with valuable insights and skills through seminars, lectures, and master classes. Led by top media managers from Russia and beyond, along with experts from the Sputnik agency, the program has been active since 2018.
