Feile feedback


Several members of the station attended the CRAOL feile over the weekend. (A couple of pictures above.) Various workshops were attended and over the next few months all the information gained will be available in member training sessions. It was felt that the weekend was very productive and lots of practical ideas were picked up. Everybody left inspired and wishing to make a contribution to next years event.

The new schedule has been approved by the BAI and we will be embarking on a promo campaign leading up to the launch on Monday 21st June. A new schedule list is being designed and will be distributed later this week.

Fetac Training

 We are currently preparing to deliver FETAC accredited training in Community Radio later this year. Depending on numbers, the first course will take place this summer and will cost about €50 to existing Claremorris Community Radio volunteers. Candidates who sucessfully complete the course will be awarded a Fetac Level 4 Certificate in Community Radio. This cost is to cover administration fees charged to the station by FETAC. Similar courses normally cost upwards of €240 so this is a great opportunity to gain a recognised qualification for a fraction of what it would normally cost.

 

This 21-hour course will take you through all of the basics and background of Community Radio in Ireland and will feature practical training on the sound desk, portable recording and editing. Assesment will be carried out by CRAOL and FETAC and certificates will be awarded upon successful completion of the programme. It would be a fantastic addition to any CV and would consolidate and expand upon your existing knowlege of Community Radio broadcasting.

 

Numbers for the course will be limited to to 10 but more courses will be run later in the year. If you would like to sign up for this course or if you would like more information, call Aidan or Kevin on 094 937 3737 or emailaidan@claremorriscommunityradio.ie 

 

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Aidan
