How SPJ Works for You
Professional Development
Professional development has been a long-time cornerstone of the Society's mission. National and regional conferences cover writing, reporting and editing as well as broader topics of ethics and freedom of information. Programs are scheduled throughout the country making them convenient to members. Our Web-based listing of media-related job openings as well internships and fellowships is updated regularly. SPJ promotes excellence in journalism through its Sigma Delta Chi awards for professional journalists and The Mark of Excellence awards for collegiate journalists.
Local Connection
Nearly 250 chapters nationwide bring educational programming to local areas and offer regular contact with other professionals from print, broadcast, online, freelance and trade publications. Enhance your career by getting involved at the local, regional or national level.
Journalism Advocacy
SPJ, nationally and locally, is working hard to ensure a free flow of information that is vital to a free society. We fight and win battles for freedom of information and First Amendment rights. We work to ensure that journalists perform their work while adhering to the highest standards of behavior and decision-making found in our Code of Ethics. And we encourage journalists to expand their source base to better reflect their community.
