What fellows have to say about past seminars: "I want to say I've been to three census trainings in under two years and this was by far the most interesting, most useful and the most fun... Thank you for this amazing opportunity. You step in where may news organizations fall short, and provide tools most reporters would not otherwise have access to. You do journalism and readers a great service! "
