Un programa exhaustivo y 100% online, exclusivo de TECHy con una perspectiva internacional respaldada por nuestra afiliación con la Society of Professional Journalists” 

El papel del periodista es importante porque desde el punto de vista crítico se encarga de informar a la sociedad de lo que pasa y acontece dentro del gobierno y todo lo referente a las decisiones futuras, manteniendo dentro del mismo relaciones y conexiones que le permiten obtener información. 

De este modo el rol del periodista busca desde la comunicación entablar relaciones con los altos mandatarios con el fin de acceder a un dialogo que le permita mostrar con transparencia todo aquello que surge en la política y las instituciones públicas. De esta manera, la información será más eficaz y verdadera. 

Por otra parte, si el periodista forma parte de una de las instituciones públicas o del mismo gobierno, está en su deber de ejercer con creces su rol, defendiendo desde un punto de vista crítico su ética profesional para contar la verdad de lo que acontece, pero a la vez sin perder esas conexiones que de una u otra forma le suministran material de investigación. 

Esta Postgraduate diploma con formato 100% online es una propuesta de TECH para todos los periodistas profesionales que deseen ampliar sus conocimientos en el sector de la política. Con su material didáctico, audiovisual e innovador, este programa ofrece las últimas actualizaciones del conocimiento en campo de la política.
