I approached the Certificate in Sports Journalism (Advanced) with a critical eye, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the course. As a journalist with some experience in the field, I was looking to refine my skills and stay up-to-date with the latest developments in sports journalism. The course delivered on both counts, with a good! balance of theoretical foundations and practical applications. I appreciated the attention to detail in the course materials, which were well-researched and included plenty of examples from European sports events. The instructors were knowledgeable and responsive to questions, and the online platform was easy to navigate. One suggestion I might make is to include more case studies or group projects to facilitate collaboration and knowledge-sharing among students. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others looking to develop their skills in sports journalism.
