The Northern Short Course in Photojournalism was founded in 1981, by the Directors of Regions 1, 2 and 3 as a joint educational program of those three regions. In 1986 the NPPA Board of Directors resolved that the NSC program be chartered and amended to be included in the Constitution and By-Laws under division XI, Special (Educational) Programs and Projects as section H. The NSC operates in conjunction with, but separate from the NPPA, and is governed by its own NSC board.
