This study examined high school journalism educators' perspectives on field trips to attend workshops and conferences sponsored by college and university journalism programs. In-depth interviews were conducted with 29 educators from across the United States, representing a broad range of scholastic journalism programs, schools, and professional experience. Educators revealed barriers and opportunities for participation in journalism-focused field trips. Implications for journalism event providers include: (a) focusing in-person events on socialization for students and educators; (b) disseminating pre- and post-event activities to promote experiential learning; and (c) producing asynchronous, virtual skills training modules that can be used without attending in-person events.
