The Executive Certificate in Sustainable Data Journalism at Stanmore School of Business was a great fit for me. Coming from a background in environmental science, I was looking to enhance my skills in data journalism to better tell the stories that need to be told. The course did just that, providing me with a solid foundation in data analysis and storytelling techniques. I particularly enjoyed the module on investigative journalism, which gave me hands-on experience in uncovering and reporting on sustainable development issues. While the course materials were excellent, I felt that some topics could have been explored more deeply. Nonetheless, my overall learning experience was positive, and I appreciate the skills I gained.

I enrolled in the Executive Certificate in Sustainable Data Journalism at Stanmore School of Business with the goal of enhancing my data analysis skills and applying them to sustainability reporting. The course provided a detailed and structured approach to learning, with each module building on the previous one. I found the sessions on data cleaning and visualization particularly useful, as they helped me understand how to work with complex datasets and present my findings in a clear and compelling manner. The course materials were comprehensive and well-organized, although some of the readings could have been more concise. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and feel that it has equipped me with the practical knowledge and! skills necessary to pursue a career in sustainable data journalism. With a bit more attention to the pacing of the course, it could be even more effective.
