CronkitePro will build on the success of our legacy of professional programs. What past participants have said:
I have found myself consistently reaching into the toolkit (that the training) has equipped me with, as the challenges of leading an organization have gotten mind-bogglingly complex.
I found the sessions with Cronkite’s excellent journalism professors to be particularly valuable. As a mid-career reporter, it was helpful to receive advice from these professors that I can apply to my everyday work.
I just wanted to extend my thanks to you all for your help to produce a great session. I thought the presentation was pointed and relevant and the discussion was very helpful.
