The Press institute changed my life forever. The training that I took made my dream a reality for being a competent journalist. I can now raise the issues of my community and contribute for change.

I was wandering in search of setting myself in such a place, where my skill of journalism fits for the welfare of nation and community through raising the issues of voice of the voiceless and supporting deprived and marginalized community for their issues to be heard. My search ended and I became content when I joined Press Institute.

The Press Institute helped me a lot to become a better journalist, enhancing my journalistic skills. I love every minute of the Press Institute and proud to be a part of it.

Working with the Press Institute has strengthened my analytical and writing skills and transformed the manner in which I view the world around me. Their rich learning materials are easy to use, informative and empowering.

I am now more critical and analytical when I verify my sources for a news article. I learned that I have the power to change the world although this power has to be exercised with responsibility. I now write with the ‘Do no harm’ principle and I ensure that my articles are factual, accurate, clear, truthful, and balanced.

Through working with the Press Institute I have learned that the pen is indeed mightier than the sword.

The materials are easy to understand yet they pass across so much information I am now more confident in my writing because of the experience with The Press Institute. One important thing that I have realized is that I have stories to tell that nobody else has or can tell in the way that I would tell them. The Press Institute is equipping me to tell my stories!

The Press Institute made a difference in my training as a correspondent. It made me feel confident to express myself in a new way: a journalistic way.

The fact that Cristi was with us at the beginning of the journey was a big help and it relieved much of the tension that the new work came with. I wish the best for the Press Institute and thank Cristi for the great work.

I want to encourage all the readers to come by the Institute and get not only a great training, but also a bath of confidence and friendship.
