Testimonials
“The course was amazing! I did benefit a great deal and also learned a lot about foreign journalism. In addition, I really liked the combination of course in the morning and working on the field in the afternoon. Definitely would recommend this course to everybody who is interested in journalism or who is already working as a journalist.”
Claire Micallef (Switzerland), Going on Assignment in Prague, July 2017
“This course allowed to me to step out of my comfort zone and really use my communication skills to try and get an interview. For some, this is a simple task. But, when you’re in a country where English is harder to come by, it really makes for a hardworking attitude. This course really helped me possess new reporting skills.”
