As I was preparing for the new semester and Monroe’s Diploma in Media Communication and Journalism, I had time to reflect how we have come full circle about the need for training to boost our media in St. Lucia. When I started in media – yes, donkey years ago – there were no training courses available. None. Getting any kind of training in media was like a trip to the moon. There was a hunkering and a yearning.

There is dire need to focus on the professional development of the media in Saint Lucia in order to address the perception of declining standards in the media. It has also been observed that many trained, experienced and qualified individuals have exited Journalism in order to pursue greener pastures in other fields while the pace of recruiting replacements has not kept up. Often media workers are required to follow the directives of owners and mangers that are not aware of the core principles and values related to the media profession.
