The Australian College of Journalism's News Journalism Course, delivered via correspondence through distance education, is a fantastic introduction to working in the mediaÖthere is no other Course like it. Learn about every aspect of this exciting profession, from developing news story ideas, working in the news media industry, through to radio broadcasting or television presenting.

You will explore the world of the journalist, undertake real projects where you write your own articles and actually submit them to editors, and you gain practical work experience in the industry.

The ACJ News Journalism Course is conducted by correspondence education. Learn at your own pace and complete coursework in your own time - after school or work, or even while completing studies in other fields. Gain invaluable feedback from your personally-assigned tutor at the College.

All our tutors are experienced professional journalists and will work with you to develop your knowledge and skills of the media industry. You can even share your experiences with other students online through our e-Student Discussion Forum.
Even if you don't want to become a News Journalist, by completing this Course you will gain invaluable skills in writing, negotiating, interviewing and presenting that will benefit you in any career path you undertake.

When you successfully complete your Course in News Journalism you'll receive a qualification that is officially recognised by employers and academic institutes across Australia. You will be able to expand on your qualification and, should you choose, continue on to develop a full and exciting career in print media, television or radio.

This is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting opportunities available for youth today.
