The MTN Media Innovation Programme (MIP) is a 6-week long programme spread across six months for media practitioners in the Nigerian space. The programme will increase the knowledge and skill base of the participants and help them understand the changing media landscape, and how to effectively use technology to create impactful media content.
Cohort-4 of the programme will build on the successes of the last three Cohorts to further consolidate its leading position as a foremost impactful training programme ever endowed for Nigerian journalists. Past Cohorts have shown the capacity of the programme to bring about a positive shift in the careers of the beneficiaries, enabling many of them to skyrocket to new positions and responsibilities after the training. The MTN MIP-4 will, as usual, stir up the spirit of innovation in the participants to empower the Nigerian media practitioners to be better at their jobs and to drive innovations that will potentially create and enthrone the much-needed sustainability in the industry.
The potential of the programme to expose the participants to learn how ICT powers the media and how the media magnifies ICT in their symbiotic relationship, as well as how the media can be potent weapons for successful diplomatic engagements is rifer now than before.
