I recently completed the Executive Development Program in Journalism at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. The course content was well-structured and comprehensive, covering a range of topics from journalism ethics to broadcast journalism. I particularly appreciated the focus on African perspectives and case studies, which helped me better understand the complexities of reporting on the continent. The instructors were experienced and insightful, and the course materials were of high quality. One area for improvement might be the addition of more practical exercises and group work to help students apply the concepts learned in the classroom. Overall, however, I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to anyone looking to develop their journalism skills, especially those with an interest in African affairs.
