Welcome to Discover the World of Communication, where you will learn to build a digital portfolio, write a script, shoot and edit a film, write a news story like a pro, speak with confidence, persuade, inform, educate and entertain. Our professional, hands-on workshops — open to students entering grades 9 through 12 — are taught by American University School of Communication faculty and communication professionals.

During class and after hours, you can explore the city from a variety of angles. View live television and radio broadcasts at local studios such as NBC4, WTTG Fox 5, NPR, and ESPN Radio, cover a Nationals baseball game or WNBA game from a press seat and tour local attractions including the National Zoo, the Newseum, National Cathedral, Georgetown and the Smithsonian museums. Upcoming sessions are June 23 - July 17, 2020. For more information, check out our brochure.
