Help finding work
We started out as a small family business in 2003, called CTJT. We had one online course and one student. Then, in January 2015, we rebranded as the College of Media and Publishing to reflect more accurately what we do.
Since then, we have become one of the UK’s most successful online colleges. Helping thousands of individuals learn new skills, change careers, and working with organisations such as Arsenal Football Club, Disney, John Lewis and Vodafone.
Our learners are never “just another student” to us. Many say their online learning experiences exceeded their expectations. Read their reviews
Our aim is to make you feel like the only student we have.
We continue to support our students, even after they have completed their online courses. There is no cut-off point.
