Resource Trial: BBC College of Journalism
We have, for the next month a trial of the BBC College of Journalism. I copy and paste from the BBC website (as an aside, note that this isn't plagiarism because I'm linking to the original source and indenting copied text. Were this an assignment or dissertation I would provide a reference to the BBC webpage at the end of this post))
It is available to DBS staff and students until 24th October and is available on-campus only.
The College of Journalism, part of the BBC Academy, oversees training for the BBC’s entire editorial staff.
This website focuses on best practice in core editorial skills, and offers an overview of specialist areas as well as legal and ethical issues.
It is a site about BBC journalism for BBC journalists, but is available to everyone
It is available to DBS staff and students until 24th October and is available on-campus only.
