How To Fact-Check

Online Course

About the CPD Course

This course teaches you how to assess information critically and ensure trustworthy content. You’ll learn how to identify questionable claims, evaluate sources, and draw accurate, evidence-based conclusions. The course also addresses the challenges of fact-checking in a digital age, including AI-generated content, misinformation on social media, and manipulated images and deepfakes. Across six modules, you’ll sharpen your skills through case studies, try-it-yourself exercises, and real-world tools such as Google Lens. You’ll explore how unchecked content affects credibility and what different industries expect from fact-checkers. A final self-assessed assignment lets you apply your learning in a simulated professional task.
