Media High Council of Rwanda (MHC) is set to offer short courses for media practitioners to upgrade their media skills after several complaints of unprofessionalism in media sector.
The Council released announcement on 14th January on its official website calling up media practitioners to register for short courses to strengthen their reporting skills.
The short courses will be mainly for journalists dealing in special reporting, investigative, sports and showbiz due to the lack of skills noticed in above fields.
