It consists of five stages: three attendance  phases in Germany and two e-learning phases. In the three study stays  in Hamburg, Cologne and Berlin, Fellows, supported by the teaching  staff, intensively acquire new journalistic skills in lectures,  practical group work, discussions and visits to innovative working  newsrooms. These attendance phases are separated by two e-learning  phases during which Fellows create journalistic products and participate  in webinars and chats at home in their own familiar working and living  environment. The e-learning phase requires an average time commitment of  7 hours a week. After the end of the course, Intajour will remain in  close contact with its Fellows, through alumni services.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage  1:<br \/>\nStart: Attendance phase in Hamburg<br \/>\n3 weeks from 28  August to 17 September 2011<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage 2:<br \/>\nE-learning  phase \/ Each Fellow studies and works in their home country<br \/>\nFrom  18 September 2011 to 3 February 2012<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage 3:<br \/>\nHalftime: Attendance phase in Cologne<br \/>\n2 weeks from 5  February to 18 February 2012<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage 4:<br \/>\nE-learning  phase \/ Each Fellow studies and works in their home country<br \/>\nSupport  via Intajour e-learning platform<br \/>\nFrom 20 February to 15 June  2012<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Stage 5:<br \/>\nFinal: Attendance phase in  Berlin<br \/>\n10 days from 15 June to 24 June 2012<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Who can participate?<\/h2>\n<p>The \u2018Journalism in the Digital World\u2019  programme is aimed at professional journalists from countries where  there is a shortage of continued training of this kind.
