Individuals who complete the Certificate will learn the technical skills necessary to obtain high-quality audio in the field and to edit that content independently or in collaboration with a reporter. Last, with the increasing popularity of podcasting, this Certificate will also be valuable to those seeking employment in podcasting, either on-air or behind-the-scenes in production, editing, and writing.
The program complements any academic major or current career, including Communication majors, Journalism majors, and Film, Television, and Audio majors seeking to deepen their knowledge and practice in audio broadcasting, as well as adult learners and professionals seeking to acquire audio broadcasting skills.
