If you have a Bachelor's degree in Mass Media or Communication, it would be helpful and the institute can train you with practical knowledge. So, doing both will be helpful and at the same time, your job will be secured.

Hi Shubham!
PG Diploma in Journalism course has Television, Radio and Print as a part of its curriculum while PG Diploma in TV and Radio Journalism is completely about electronic media. Though you can opt for any of these courses but TV and Radio Journalism would be preferable.

Hi Raminder!
Sadhna Academy has two courses:
1. Diploma in Anchoring, Reporting and TV Production
2. Diploma in Anchoring and Reporting
Both are 1-year diploma course and both courses will help you to become a news anchor/reporter. The former course has TV production as an extra element but you can choose either of the courses if anchoring is your only objective.
