I took the Certificate in Automotive Journalism course at Stanmore School of Business and it was a solid experience. I gained some practical knowledge on how to write about cars and the automotive industry, which was my main goal. The course materials were decent, but I felt that some of the topics could have been explored in more depth. However, I did appreciate the opportunity to learn from industry experts and the feedback I received on my assignments was helpful. One of the highlights of the course was the 'Industry Trends' module, which gave me a good understanding of the current state of the automotive industry and where it's headed. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others who are interested in pursuing a career in automotive journalism.
