Whether you are completely new to radio or if you already have some radio experience, the radio producer training course from Erewash Sound is suitable for all skill levels.

Our five-session programme is an interactive classroom and hands-on course that will prepare you for roles in radio production.


” Very professional and detailed. I learned such a lot ”

Our producer training course was originally developed as an induction programme for new producers at Erewash Sound.

As with our presenter course, it does not assume prior radio knowledge and can provide a valuable launchpad for a career in the media. 

It is an engaging mix of group and individual activities with classroom learning delivered from our facilities at the Media Centre in Cotmanhay, Ilkeston.

Being a producer is much more than making a cuppa or two! Producers are the backbone of radio shows, ensuring smooth running and helping to create content.

From undertaking and organising interviews to creating audio and video content for use on-air and on social media, our production skills course will teach you all of the behind-the-scenes aspects of creating a show.
