“I started out as one of The Crew with no experience of media production. I learned the basics of interviewing, editing and publishing written, audio and video pieces. Importantly, I gained the confidence and teambuilding skills that I require in everyday life! Most of all I have always been challenged – from day one!
I further my skills within The Reporters’ Academy by working alongside my professional industry mentor, who guides and teaches me all I need to know.”
Hope, Crew Member

“It was a great pleasure to meet and work with the Reporters’ Academy students at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. It was really inspiring to see how they have embraced their roles representing the Oceania Olympic Nations, and the interesting stories they provided the BBC about their athletes made a significant impression on our output across all platforms.
Kiribati weightlifter David Katoatau playing his guitar and singing to Hazel Irvine in the studio was one of the memorable moments of the Games!”
