About Us

With multiple channels running 24/7 and the rapid changing world scenario, the need of the hour is to keep abreast with what is happening around us. The Media keeps swarming all walks of life and is so pervading that a world without the media has become an Utopia.

Offering greater scopes for a fulfilling career, the media world has moved from the niche of an elite professionalism to rampant creativity and skill. The possibility of being in the limelight is yet another lure of the media. Despite the constant swarm of lights, boom mics and cameras rolling, this field still offers wide variety of career options from On-location Scene to behind the screen tables.

Perhaps there is in you an inner desire to be a part of this buzz world, not just to be in the limelight but to contribute positively in this world of the media and to make a difference. What you need are the skills required to be a part of this world…

This is an Institute that provides Creative Media & Journalism Programmes for young people in the border of Delhi - Ghaziabad. Together we can address the needs of the Academic Curriculum as well as meet the needs for Technical Skills and Expertise.

Today the media world needs creativity and technical skills simply to survive, and in the future this will intensify – many media centres will require constant reinventions.

With a vision to form ethical media professionals our curriculum delivers diversity and skills transferable through flexible and interactive programmes that use hands-on practical experience to inform, involve and inspire young people of all abilities.
