The King's Summer School in Data Journalism is partnering with the Canadian Association of Journalists to offer a live, online school June 22 to 26. It will be led by University of King's College professor Fred Vallance-Jones and by David McKie, who had a long career with the CBC before becoming a freelance data producer and trainer.
