What is journalism?

Journalism is the process of reporting current events and news to the public. Journalism courses are one of the best ways to get started in journalism, as a way to find out if it’s something you want to pursue whether you’d want to go onto further education in the area or even just as a hobby for online blogs or writing. Due to the nature of the work, and an increasingly digital world, there are online journalism courses available at a number of institutions around Australia, including TAFE courses.

Studying journalism:

Journalism is a highly respected field, and because of this, there is a high demand for degrees like a Bachelor of Media and Communication or a Bachelor of Journalism. This means that these degrees can have really high enter scores and are regularly in demand. A short course is a perfect way to study journalism and get some experience in the area before dedicating yourself to a full degree, or alternatively as a pathway to university. If you choose to study journalism courses at TAFE or other institutions, some may offer a specialty course, like digital journalism or international journalism. Possible courses include:

  • Certificate in Entertainment Journalism
  • Certificate in Journalism
  • Short course in creative writing
  • Short course in Journalism

After completing a short course, you can go on to study either a university degree or even a more advanced course, like a TAFE Media and Communication course. There are a range of opportunities for further education as a lead on from a short course if you want to continue down the journalism career path.

Careers in journalism:

If you choose to study journalism online or in person, or a blend of both, it can be the start of a truly rewarding career, with a huge range of possible job pathways and trajectories all over the world and domestically. Any of the following careers would benefit from a short course in journalism:

  • Digital Journalist
  • TV Reporter
  • Writer/Author
  • Sports Journalist
  • Foreign Correspondent
  • Newspaper Journalist
  • Editor

Is a career in journalism right for you?

With so many opportunities to study in person or online, journalism is a study option that anyone can participate in. There are, however, a few key skills that journalists need. The most important thing is a questioning, curious mind, as being a journalist will require you to investigate and discover a wide range of events, stories, and news. Aside from that, general literacy skills and an ability to speak eloquently will help in any career, but especially in journalism.
