Accredited by the PTC and now including NCTJ modules, our course is recognised throughout the industry for producing quality journalists with the skills needed to handle anything an editor throws at them. You’ll learn news and feature writing, media law, shorthand, subbing, interviewing and web-broadcast techniques — all of which could be put to the test during your two-weeks’ work experience. As part of the course you’ll produce a magazine from scratch — which is published in print by us and online by you. And then there’s your group’s blog to update. Busy? Try seven-days-a-week busy. This course is like nothing you’ve ever experienced. What do you get at the end of it? A diploma. But that’s not the point. We can’t promise you a job, however it’s not unusual for some people to have been offered jobs even before the course has ended, and we’d expect the rest to be in fully-paid jobs within three months. Why are we so good? Expert tutors with vast experience, plus our excellent contacts in magazine publishing are a couple of reasons. Of course you’d expect us to say we’re the best, so don’t take our word for it: visit www.becomeajournalist.com and read the blogs, or check out pma postgrads on facebook. www.becomeajournalist.com e:training@pma-group.com tel:01480 300653 http://www.qmul.ac.uk/pgopenevening http://www.qmul.ac.uk/pgopenevening http://www.becomeajournalist.com http://www.becomeajournalist.com http://www.becomeajournalist.com http://www.goldsmiths.ac.uk http://www.goldsmiths.ac.uk
