UCB Academy

At UCB our vision is changing lives for good by the power of God's Word. Our mission is to offer every person, every place, every moment of the day the opportunity to hear, watch or read the Word of God in a relevant and engaging way. Do you want to be a part of that by joining our new initiative?

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a radio station or TV channel?  How do you produce a radio show?  What’s involved in creating a publication that’ll be read by hundreds of thousands of people?  If you’re a bit of a creative type and want to take a year out, learning all about Christian media (from radio to TV, to Social Media, publishing and loads more), then the UCB Academy could be just what you’re looking for.

You’ll learn

  • What makes a great news story
  • How to create strong content for a live radio programme
  • Presenting skills, plus the technical knowledge of running a radio desk
  • How to work under pressure and to deadlines (in a live broadcast environment)
  • And you’ll develop strong admin and organisation skills which can be used in lots of different environments

 

And at the end, you’ll get a ILM qualification (*subject to completion of assignment sessions/assessments)
