FOR anyone interested in creating unique and innovative podcasts and radio shows, a new QQI Level 3 evening course hosted by Limerick City Community Radio and delivered by Wired FM (MIC) will provide a blended learning experience to make programming that youโ€™re passionate about.
The course is provided by Craol and is a nationally accredited course leading to a Level 3 (component) on the National Framework of Qualifications, awarded by QQI.
Station Manager at Wired FM (Mary I College), Ray Burke will be teaching the course.
โ€œYouโ€™ll explore how radio and TV shapes the world we live in. Youโ€™ll learn technical skills, interviewing and production skills, and in groups youโ€™ll make programming dictated by your own interests and passions

โ€œCommunity Radio is a worldwide movement that is about inclusivity, accessibility, freedom of expression and everybodyโ€™s right to communicate.
โ€œWe especially encourage female participants, and members of marginalised communities.โ€
Ray also referred Limerick Post to a quote from a previous course participant, Pat Rutherford, who reviewed his experience of the course
โ€œI had never been in a radio studio before, but the pace of tutoring and learning was geared to each personโ€™s individual needs.
โ€œThe outcome of this was that we learned about structure, about sequencing, about editing and very importantly about content. Overall, it was a great rejuvenating and rewarding experience.โ€
The QQI Level 3 introductory Media Expression course runs weekly from Monday November 8 (7pm) to early February 2022 (Breaking for December).
