Training company Brighton Journalist Works has been taken over by its tutors.

The move comes months after the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) temporarily removed the private training company’s accreditation status. It has since been restored.

BJW’s fast-track course, which they say is the shortest one in the country, will last 16 weeks. The centre also offers a part-time weekend course running from September to July. Both are accredited by the NCTJ.
