About

News Associates run full and part-time training courses which are accredited by the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ).

SETTING THE STANDARD: More journalists take their NCTJ exams with News Associates than any other accredited training provider
SETTING THE STANDARD: More journalists take their NCTJ exams with News Associates than any other accredited training provider

All courses lead to a Pre-Entry Certificate in Newspaper Journalism - the only recognised journalism qualification.

To become an accredited centre, our facilities and tutors went through a rigorous vetting process, which included site visits and tutor interviews by NCTJ staff and leading newspaper editors.

Our results are closely monitored to ensure high standards - as is the success rate our graduates have in finding full-time journalism jobs.

*No other training centre in the country has more graduates achieving a full certificate, ie all subjects including 100 words per minute shorthand (Source: NCTJ Annual Report, 2007-8).
