From the way the program was structured, to the quality of the lecturers and their mode of delivery, everything was simply fantastic. At the end, this being an wholly online seminar didn’t diminish its depth in any way as I had initially feared. I certainly didn’t regret registering for this mind-blowing one-week seminar.

Media Entrepreneurship Programme

I made great connections. I had practical teachings from my lecturers. I enjoyed attention (one on one) from the facilitators. They are not your regular teachers; they are experienced in their various fields, and it hits differently.
