Course Overview

Our courses equip you with the necessary skills to work as a journalist. Several of our students were offered jobs before they finished their examinations, and editors regularly ask if our best students could apply for jobs with them.

Our students have obtained jobs at places such as Sky News, The Daily Mail, BBC News, the Huffington Post and South China Morning Post.
