The Broadcasting Award has 8 grades within 3 bands of journalist classifications.
For a journalist to progress to the next grade, their employer has to consider whether there’s been:
- an increase in the use of their professional judgement
- an increase in skills
- a decrease in the supervision the journalist needs.
If the employer’s satisfied that all of these things have happened, the journalist will move to the next grade.
