IIMC partners with Australian varsity to impart social media training to officials

Posted On: 05/11/2013 Updated On:

Officers in the Indian Information Service will get training from an Australian university on how to use modern technology and social media to share information of government policies with stakeholders. Mid-level and senior officers will be trained to understand and adapt to the changing media landscape, under a memorandum of understanding signed between the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC), New Delhi, and the Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Brisbane, Australia, on 4th November.

The institutions signed an international cooperation agreement to collaborate on academic programmes and research in media and communication. The agreement envisages bringing information and communications technology in academic programmes. The institutes will enter into joint ventures and develop a collaborative doctoral programme. The agreement will also lead to joint academic and scientific activities, including courses, conferences, seminars, symposia, lectures, student and faculty exchange programmes, and exchange of materials and publications of common interest. The agreement signed for five years will be reviewed six months before expiry and may be renewed for a further term by mutual agreement.
