Why do so many students choose to take our courses?
The largest single reason is 'word of
mouth' recommendations - from within the industry and from our students,
past and present - because the quality of our courses and the skill
of our tutors has been established for over 80 years.

"Our intern program allows students to take part in the workings of our largest bureau outside the US, with responsibilities for both production and newscasting. Students from the LSJ consistently demonstrate a good grasp of the practical skills and requirements, and obviously have been taught what is needed to be successful journalists." |

Most of our students are already employed and use the knowledge

their future prospects. Many have their courses funded by their employer.
A significant proportion are looking to develop either an alternative or an additional
career using the writing skills they learn.
