I was looking for real-time experience in reporting disasters and the course module and exercises I did were as close to a real situation as it can be. Best aspects of the course was writing, reporting and editing exercises that gave me a hands-on experience on crisis and emergency situations. (Crises and Disasters Reporting, Abu Dhabi 27th June - 1st July 2010).

The Writing and Reporting News course was really rewarding. I gained a lot from the experience of the facilitators, Reuters reporters, Editors and the Foundation. Most importantly, the working with other journalists from different countries was great. The Canary Wharf office was really cool!. (Writing and Reporting News, London 24-28 May 2010).
