BBC Writers Digital Session for BA and Postgraduate Screenwriting Students
The BBC Writers Team receives many requests to speak to screenwriting students as they prepare to embark on a career as a professional writer.
To help students gain a better understanding of the work undertaken by BBC Writers, we run online webinars with the aim of explaining to screenwriting students what BBC Writers is and how it might help them as they progress their writing careers - specifically in Television Drama.
These webinars are appropriate for final-year BA and MA students (or equivalent) who are interested in finding out more about BBC Writers, BBC Drama and the broader Television Drama sector.
Each webinar will be broadly similar in content, and we programme the timings of the webinars so that they are accessible to as many students as possible who wish to join us and hear more about BBC Writers and its work with new and emerging writers.
The next date is:
- Thursday 7th May 2026 from 1 to 2pm
