Any secondary school student can join this news service as a reporter after successfully completing the PEARL World Youth News Reporter Certification Course.

The course, which is available online and free of cost, aims to help students get started as international correspondents for a global youth news service. Students are asked to do three assignments as part of the course to demonstrate that they have understood the reading materials. Their assignments are reviewed by students and alumni from the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University in New York City, US.

On successful completion of the course, students receive a certificate from PEARL World Youth News and get the the opportunity to:

- Write news stories for the PEARL website on a regular basis.

- Get their news stories republished in school publications around the world.

- Meet PEARL Reporters from different countries and work together to write news stories on issues that they care about!

If you are a secondary school school student interested in taking the certification course or if you'd like to view the course materials, click here.
