Reach 2,500 Journalism Education Professionals with Journalism Education Association

Members include high-school and secondary-school journalism teachers and media advisers — including yearbook, newspaper, digital-media, and broadcast advisers — from public, private, and parochial schools, as well as faculty from community college and university journalism/communication departments. Many members also work for student media outlets, press associations, or media-related organizations (e.g. school newspapers, yearbook companies, broadcast/radio/TV stations), making the association a network of educators and media-advising professionals. The Journalism Education Association (JEA) is a U.S. professional association representing high‑school and secondary‑school journalism teachers and advisers — currently the largest scholastic journalism educator body in the country with about 2,500 + members. Founded in 1924, JEA provides members with curriculum resources, professional development, certification, mentoring, and access to national conventions and contests. For advertisers and media buyers, JEA offers a highly engaged, niche audience of education professionals and student‑media influencers — a loyal, influential community with strong purchasing power and direct sway over school‑media purchases, programming, and related media investments.
