Course Content

During this 14-week course, each session focuses on a different element of the media industry such as newspapers, TV, online publications, podcasts, marketing and social media. You will develop an understanding of the various components of the media industry and how it engages with the public. There will be independent tasks and group activities such as analysing news agendas and creating our own lifestyle TV studio.

Assessment Method

This is a RARPA based course, assessment is carried out though building of a portfolio and taking part within tasks matched to the individual’s personal targets.

RARPA stands for Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement which is the process of assessment for non-accredited learning. It is a means of validating the outcomes of programmes which do not result in qualifications. RARPA is a five–stage process which measures and records learners’ progress, achievements and attendance.
