Continuing Education
Columbia Journalism School seeks to make our faculty and staff more accessible to working journalists who wish to enhance their practical technical, reporting and problem-solving skills. Courses are taught by world-class journalists from our permanent and adjunct faculties. Courses are non-credit-bearing and with entrance requirements noted with each program description.
Working journalists are eager to raise their game through classroom training in which they can reflect on difficult reporting issues, to add digital/technical skills and subject expertise to their professional portfolios to address challenges in newsrooms across the world.
