I took the Data Journalism course at Stanmore School of Business to improve my data analysis skills and learn how to tell compelling stories with data. The course was really helpful in achieving my learning goals - I learned how to work with datasets, create interactive visualizations, and write engaging articles. The course materials were good, but I think some of the lectures could have been more engaging. Overall, I'm happy with the course and would recommend it to others.

I recently completed the Data Journalism course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a valuable learning experience. As a journalist based in Cairo, I was looking to enhance my skills in data-driven storytelling. The course provided me with a solid foundation in data analysis and visualization, and I appreciated the focus on practical applications. The instructors were knowledgeable and responsive, and the course materials were well-organized. One area for improvement could be more feedback on assignments, but overall I'm satisfied with the course. I've already started applying the skills I learned to my work, and I'm excited to see the impact it will have on my reporting.
