Are you a journalism student or adviser that would love to learn about your craft from some of the best instructors in the nation? Then register today for jCamp 2025—a five-day, in-person workshop like nothing else in the state.

While at camp, you won’t just sit in a classroom hearing about journalism. You will do it!

Located at James Madison University, home of The Breeze, jCamp is all about giving you the tools to create a dynamic, successful publication.

jCamp is an excellent opportunity for beginners who want to learn the basics, students aiming to refine their skills and publication staffs looking to plan for the coming year together. Advisers are invited (but not required) to attend as well to learn alongside their students!

Regardless of experience level, campers will be able to choose from a variety of break-out sessions each day exploring all facets of journalism, such as photography, videography, writing, design, law and ethics, social media/digital journalism and so much more!

Campers stay in the dorms at James Madison University, and meals are included in the registration fee.

Out-of-state campers are welcome!
