Why Every Media and PR Student Should Join Newsline Media and Training Agency for Attachment Opportunities
As the media and communications industry becomes increasingly competitive, students studying Media, Public Relations, Journalism, and Digital Communication are seeking more than just classroom knowledge — they want real-world exposure.
That’s where Newsline Media and Training Agency comes in.
Strategically located in Thika, Newsline Media and Training Agency has positioned itself as one of the most dynamic and hands-on attachment centers for students pursuing careers in the media and PR space.
“Our focus is to nurture young communicators by placing them in a professional, creative environment where they learn by doing,” says Faith Mukundi, the Director of Newsline Media and Training Agency.
What makes Newsline different?
The agency offers an intensive, structured attachment and internship program that gives students the chance to work directly in live production environments, write real news stories, pitch PR campaigns, host shows, and run digital marketing strategies for real clients.
Whether you’re studying broadcast journalism, corporate communication, digital media, or public relations, the attachment experience at Newsline Media is designed to give you practical skills that employer’s values — such as story pitching, live interviews, editing, scripting, branding, and public speaking.
Students are mentored by industry professionals and have access to a fully-equipped studio, editing suites, media classrooms, and digital production tools.
Additionally, students get to contribute to Newsline Media TV, the agency’s growing media platform where trainees produce news content, podcasts, interviews, and talk shows — allowing them to build a visible portfolio before graduation.
“By the time our students finish their attachment, they are confident enough to walk into a newsroom, agency, or communication office and perform like professionals,” Faith Mukundi adds.
Who is eligible?
The program is open to students pursuing diploma or degree courses in:
Journalism & Mass Communication
Public Relations & Corporate Communication
Digital Marketing & Advertising
Media Studies
Film Production & Sound
Graphic Design and Photography
With an emphasis on discipline, creativity, teamwork, and innovation, Newsline’s attachment program has already opened doors for many young people now working in radio stations, media houses, PR firms, government offices, and digital agencies.
“The experience I got at Newsline gave me confidence and clarity about my media career path,” says Nicholas Balozi, a former film student and attachment graduate.
Applications are ongoing for the current intake. Students are encouraged to book early, as slots are limited to maintain quality training and mentorship.
