EBU Academy Committee

The EBU Academy Committee is an elected body representing the training and development activities of the EBU’s Membership. It serves an important advisory role to the EBU Academy team with the aim of lending guidance and expertise that help the academy deliver relevant and valuable training to EBU Members. This in turn helps public media organizations fulfill their remit of serving public audiences with the best content and setting an example to the rest of the broadcasting industry.

The committee organizes and sets the agenda for the annual EBU Academy Assembly. This event offers talent and development managers, chief learning officers, heads of international relations and human resources and strategy and change managers the opportunity to network and to exchange views about the development of media professionals. The elected committee members serve a 2-year term.
