Hey Everyone,

So i've started a diploma with DBS in Journalism every Monday and Wednesday, it's the first week so I'm still testing the classes out to see if it's worth it (hopefully have a decision by Monday though).

I completed a Masters in International Relations last year but i've always been interested in the media side of things in this field. I want to ask - is this diploma, if anyone here has done this or something similar, going to be taken seriously by employers? I understand that with some relevant internship experience alongside it, it will probably be more beneficial but generally speaking. This course is coming to 2,000 so i want to be sure that maybe an employer somewhere out there would see it and think it was decent enough starting ground for a career in this field.

Thanks
