Radio school experience

Get hands-on experience working in the radio industry. 

The full-day experience with Made in Kent Radio is ideal for beginners and will show you how to present on the radio and use a fully working professional radio studio. This is a hands-on course which will have you in the studio recording your own links and running the desk. You’ll even learn some secrets in radio, as to how shows are put together.


You’ll learn about the history of radio and how radio stations like Heart & Capital radio work today. The course also tackles how to get your first radio job; if you fancy taking the course further.


Made in Kent’s radio experience classes are very small, so you get personal attention and training. This is a fun and engaging experience, that will be cherished forever.
