    Hi I recently was acepted for two courses and I am currently in a bit of a pickle deciding which one to do! Both are journalsim courses which is what I path I intend to follow
    Anyways the two courses….
    The first is this one from Belfast…
    Newspaper Journalism: Writing NVQ 4
    http://www.belfastmet.ac.uk/courses/coursedetails.asp?course_id=195
    The other is this one from Griffith
    Higher Diploma in Journalism and Media Communications

    http://www.gcd.ie/index.jsp?1nID=108&2nID=124&nID=222&aID=271

    If you ignore issues like finance and location which course from an academic and career point of view would be more beneficial in boardies opinion?

    I will be mega-picky here but.....if you are going to go into journalisim, it may be a good plan to start to proofread your general communications.....

    OP you will definitely get a better response if you format and use grammar correctly.

    You might want to check your spelling too. :D Sorry, couldn't resist it.

    Anyway, you might be better asking on the News & Media forum, there are plenty of journalists there.

    Obvious ones too are to check what recent graduates are doing and have a look over the modules you'll be doing - most of that is online nowadays so you can get a better scope at what each involves.
