Speaking Engagement Spotlight:

Master of Media in Journalism and Communication at Western University

Master of Media in Journalism and Communication (MMJC) is a one-year professional master’s degree offered at Western University that prepares future journalists and communications professionals with advanced skills in multimedia, storytelling, professional writing, research, and many more.

One of the mission statements of the MMJC program is to provide a unique, personalized learning experience for students.

How the speaking engagement session went:

Eunice Yidana, the Founder and CEO of EUNY BESPOKE MEDIA, had the excellent opportunity to return to her alma mater (Western University) not to study but to be a guest lecturer/speaker for the MMJC program in December 2024. Eunice was honoured to be invited by Mark A. Rayner to speak with his graduate students for his course “The Social Media and Digital Production Dojo” under the MMJC program at Western University. Mark was Eunice’s lecturer when she was a student in the MMJC program.

Eunice spoke about what a day looks like when managing social media for her clients and shared information about her career and experience in entrepreneurship, social media, marketing, and communications. As an MMJC’21 alumna, it was great speaking with the graduate students for this year’s cohort with their hashtag #MMJC10outofTen. The students were excited to see their hashtag in my presentation. We pay attention to detail at EUNY BESPOKE MEDIA! :)

During Eunice’s lecture, she showed the class a meme with the inscription “Imagine a world without social media.” This led to a discussion and varying opinions shared by some of the students and Mark A. Rayner, the lecturer.

Overall, it was such an insightful speaking engagement. EUNY BESPOKE MEDIA wants to thank Mark A. Rayner for this great speaking engagement opportunity and the inspiring testimonial.
