Current teams

The journalism students spend the first six months of their training directly at the Axel Springer Academy of Journalism & Technology  in Berlin. Here, they learn the basics of journalism every day from the best lecturers. After that, they go to their regular editorial offices, where they put what they’ve learned into practice.
