Exam refresher sessions are ideal for distance learners and those who would benefit from additional support ahead of NCTJ exams.
The virtual sessions are led by experienced NCTJ tutors and examiners who can help prepare candidates for both diploma and NQJ exams.
Diploma in Journalism refreshers
Ahead of national exam dates, refreshers are offered on the following diploma subjects: Essential journalism and essential media law and ethics.
Prior to attending, candidates will be sent a sample exam to complete and return to the tutor, who will mark the paper and go through areas of difficulty at the workshop. You will also be asked to submit your top five areas of concern so the tutor can work into the programme.
The essential journalism will take place on Tuesday, 24 June from 10am until 2pm.
The essential media law and ethics refresher will take place on Thursday, 26 June from 10am until 2pm
The media law and court reporting will take place on Thursday, 26 June from 11am until 3pm.
National Qualification in Journalism (NQJ) refreshers
Two-day refresher sessions for the NQJ exams are held in February, June and October each year, offering practical experience and feedback on all sections of the NQJ.
You will be given coursework and mock exams to complete in advance of attending, which will be marked with feedback. As part of the refresher, you will also complete a full mock exam day.
The tutor will also review your logbook and provide advice and guidance.
The next two sessions will take place on 18 June and 19 June between 9am and 5pm.
Group sessions cost £360, for those who have not pre-paid for a session as a distance learner.
Please note that we reserve right to change structure of session or cancel, subject to booking numbers.
