Accredited by the NCTJ

This course combines journalism and multimedia authoring with a critical exploration of the emerging field of convergent journalism.

You will take the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) preliminary examinations (including shorthand and law) in Stages 1 and 2 and complete a portfolio of journalistic pieces in Stage 3 to achieve accreditation as a trainee journalist. You will also learn audio and video acquisition and editing, web publishing and 2D animation.

Developing traditional journalism skills alongside digital storytelling techniques, you will become highly employable in a modern media environment. You will be taught by media professionals in our new convergent newsroom to produce print and multimedia content, using a professional editorial system.
