The WBD Press Academy

In Association with NCTJ Certificate in Foundation Journalism

This unique course is designed for students with lived experience, offering an opportunity to develop journalistic skills and tell impactful stories.

Some of the student assignments from this course, showcased here, have also been published on Old Street News.

I feel truly humbled and privileged to have spent six weeks at the CNN building alongside such talented peers and under the guidance of the exceptional Prof. Ian Reeves.

A heartfelt thanks to our incredible hosts:

  • Tasha Reynolds, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility

  • Adam Dunnakey, Producer and Diversity Ambassador

  • Rebecca Moore, Senior Director and Diversity Ambassador

Their support and expertise have made this experience unforgettable.
