As part of our objective to give students a "real world" view of broadcasting, the practical element of our courses are held at the studios of a local radio station. This enables students to view, first-hand, the various operational aspects of the radio station, and to learn in professional surroundings.

Equipment used by students during our courses includes Soundcraft, Alice, Denon, Neumann, AKG, Sonifex, Cool Edit / Cool Edit Pro and Yamaha.
