Celebrating
The Corporation hosted its inaugural Business Media Workshop, as part of the 30th
anniversary celebrations, for local journalists aimed at giving an insight into ways
to enhance financial reporting skills. It delivered on its objective to use a classroom
environment to engage journalists by providing them with a greater understanding of
economic influences on the capital and financial markets, financial institutions and
businesses, and the ordinary investor. The workshop was facilitated by Jan Brandstrader,
Contributing Editor at Barron’s and Adjunct in the Graduate School of Journalism at
Columbia University School of Journalism.
