The National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) was founded in 1951 as organisation to oversee the training of journalists for the newspaper industry in the United Kingdom and is now playing a role in the wider media.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=About Us )〕 It is a self-appointed body and does not hold any statutory powers from central government, meaning students and those seeking to enter the media industry do not have to legally hold one of its qualifications to obtain work as a journalist. Indeed, many higher education providers have removed their courses from the NCTJ's remit in recent years, causing the body's value to be questioned. ==Purpose== The NCTJ offers accreditation, recognised throughout the industry, for aspiring and junior journalists.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=About Us )〕 The accreditation consists of preliminary exams ('prelims'), which are undertaken either before the candidate begins work as a reporter or shortly afterwards, and the NCE, which is usually taken between 18 months and two years after beginning work on a newspaper. On completion of the NCE, the candidate is regarded as a fully qualified senior reporter by the newspaper industry. However, these courses also provide transferable skills for other industries, such as public relations, publishing, the film and television industries (especially for researchers), marketing, among others or even further study elsewhere. The NCTJ is a level three award. The NCTJ is a private and commercial organisation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The NCTJ Marketing not education )〕 NCTJ alumni include Mark Austin, Piers Morgan, Kay Burley, John Inverdale, Geordie Greig and Helen Skelton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Alumni )〕 As well as being the examining body, the NCTJ offers short training courses to refresh candidates' knowledge prior to them sitting NCTJ prelims or the NCE, and also for professionals looking for related training.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Short Courses )〕 The NCTJ is also a professional awarding body recognised by the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulator Ofqual.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=NCTJ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Council for the Training of Journalists」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
