Journalism schools: training courses recognized or not, how to access them and their opportunities. To become a journalist, a very popular but difficult profession to access, there are journalism schools and specific training.
In 2018, 19.9% of journalists holding a press card had attended school, compared to 12.2% in 2000. Once on a permanent contract, journalists who graduated from recognized schools earn 400 euros more than those which do not come from it. The courses offered by these schools essentially lead to a Master's degree, that is to say a Bac + 5.
