The course is very robust in terms of the content and topics it covers. Tutorials are detailed and extensive with links to further reading (should you need it). The course is a blend of reading and hands-on coursework, all of which aim to develop different components of writing and journalism. Judy's (senior tutor) feedback pulls no punches (in a good way) and always makes you think about how to better yourself at all points from article conception to creation. Erin and colleagues were extremely prompt in getting back to me on queries, making the overall student experience smooth.
All in all, a great course that I would highly recommend.

The tutor guides you through the course and you grow throughout. There is so much useful information to help you along the way and beyond. The courses help you to understand the various types of articles and opportunities that are out there. The college were very supportive when I had any questions. Highly recommended.

THE COURSEWORK MODULES WERE IN-DEPTH AND I FOUND THEM INTERESTING. THE STUDENT PORTAL WAS EASY ENOUGH TO NAVIGATE ONCE I GOT USED TO IT. FEEDBACK ON THE ASSIGNMENTS WAS HELPFUL AND I LEARNT NOT ONLY WHICH AREAS I NEED TO IMPROVE ON, BUT HOW TO DO SO. I FEEL I NOW HAVE A GRIP ON THE ESSENTIALS TO BEGIN MY JOURNEY INTO FREELANCE JOURNALISM.

Judy is an excellent tutor who provides actionable and insightful feedback. The content provided during the course is very useful, and the way the course is structured is also very fluid, be it from one assignment to the next, but also with the submission of assignments themselves. I highly recommend taking this course if you're interested in freelance journalism!

I cannot recommend The British College of Journalism highly enough! Their course provided me with the knowledge and confidence to write professionally, even though I wasn’t pursuing a career in journalism. I enrolled to improve my writing skills for my interior design blog, and thanks to my incredible tutor, Judy, the experience was tailored perfectly to my needs. She truly went above and beyond to support my niche request, ensuring I received the right guidance to elevate my writing.
The entire team, including Belinda and Erin, were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their unwavering support, patience, and kindness made the learning process even more enjoyable. No matter how many questions I had, they were always there with a helpful response and a positive attitude.
This was actually my second course with them—after completing the Professional Interior Design Diploma, which I also can’t recommend enough! The knowledge and encouragement I received from both courses inspired me to build my own interior design website (a very unique start-up in the UK but details to reveal soon), which will be launching soon.
If you’re looking for expert training with exceptional support, look no further than The British College of Journalism.
Many, many thanks again to the entire team!

I passed my Diploma in Freelance Travel Journalism and needed to get an urgent copy of my certificate while travelling overseas. The College Registrar, Erin and her team were very quick to respond and deal with this quickly, sending me a duplicate scanned, signed certificate within 24 hours. The course was incredible and customer service afterwards, incredible. Thank you!

The delivery of the tutorials were excellent; the pace of the course was comfortable, and the feedbacks from Judy Yoke were brilliant and helpful. The support team were most helpful. Also, students must remember to read Judy's regular advice on her personal Facebook; great tips there.

The British College of Journalism offers a well-structured, flexible course that’s ideal for beginners or those looking to refine their writing skills. The materials are comprehensive, and Judy the tutor feedback is constructive. While it provides a solid foundation, more interactive sessions or networking opportunities would be a plus. A great choice for self-motivated learners!

Thankfully I only paid the minimum first payment.
I started the initial evaluation and waited for the feedback so I could continue the course.
I'll never know what that feedback was.
I received emails regarding the imprisoned feedback but I couldn't access the feedback, so game over there and then.
You can't learn from a mute teacher.
Communication was excellent; I can't fault it or their concerted efforts to resolve the issue.
It's just that the awful website design took a toll on the course of the course. Of course lol.
They couldn't understand why this was happening.
I see it as divine intervention stopping me from going the route of journalism.
I'll write a book instead.
My name is darrell thompson. Sorry, forgot I had my pseudonym as the name. Loosing £100 isn't a lot of money, I'm not that bothered.
I just thought the feedback might help sort out the issue with feedback. Best of luck fixing that issue.
Like I say, it wasn't meant to be. You can't fight fate.

It was a fantastic experience. One aspect I found very encouraging was having people around who always responded to emails and questions as I progressed in the program.
