The agency is an accredited provider of NCTJ (National Council for the Training of Journalists) media training - the oldest and most established post-graduate qualification for reporters. From their newsrooms in London and Manchester, they now train more journalists every year than any other provider - taking either 20-week Fast Track (March and September) or 40-week part-time (January/September) courses.
