I found the Masterclass Certificate in Media Law (Advanced) to be a solid course that provided a good overview of the key concepts and principles in media law. As a student from France, I appreciated the international perspective and the examples from different jurisdictions. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, although I felt that some topics could have been explored in more depth. The instructor was knowledgeable and responsive to questions, which was helpful. One of the most useful aspects of the course was the discussion forum, where I could engage with other students and learn from their experiences. While I didn't find the course to be particularly groundbreaking, it was a good introduction to the subject and has given me a foundation to build on. With a bit more attention to detail and depth in some areas, I would have given it a higher rating.
