This program has been really beneficial to me not only in my pursuit as a future journalist but as an individual as a whole. The journey has been an eye opener.The lecturers and the organization has done a really great job. The only thing I believe needs an improvement is the network issues, I faced a lot of challenges following up as most time the lecturer's network is bad
