Oxford University Press has partnered with the BBC to distribute the BBC College of Journalism website – making the learning and development materials created for BBC journalists available outside the BBC for the very first time.

The BBC College of Journalism (COJ) was established in 2006 with the mission of overseeing all training for BBC journalists throughout the world. To accomplish their goal, the BBC launched a companion website on its intranet in 2007 and used it as a way to distribute to BBC journalists the training materials designed and developed by the COJ.
