Academy for Disabled Journalists Launches 2nd Year of Diploma
ADJ have launched their search for the next cohort of disabled students to study for the Diploma in Journalism with our Academy for Disabled Journalists.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a unique, inclusive initiative to gain a qualification equivalent to a foundation degree that many editors consider to be a prerequisite for junior reporter roles.
If you or someone you know is interested in a career in media and has a disability, then please help me reach them. The course is in partnership with the NCTJ and subsidised by the National Lottery. This is a great chance to jump on a pathway to employment in media.
More information on the Academy, the Diploma and how to apply can be found here:

"I might be disabled and my body may let me down, but that doesn't mean my brain doesn't work. I am really happy to have passed, it feels like a great achievement and to know I did it first time means that it can be done." Victoria Scholes - ADJ Student
"I have been offered a traineeship that’s really exciting. It wouldn’t have happened without the course. In the interview process everyone who talked to me commented positively on it, so I am not exaggerating to say there is no way I would have got to that point without Ability Today." Jamie Green - ADJ Student
Closing date is the 16th September 2022.
