FAQs

Who is this for?
Anyone who wants to develop real radio, podcasting, presenting and content-creation skills — whether you’re a complete beginner or already creating.

Do I need experience?
No. Most people start with little or no studio experience. The programme is designed to build confidence and skills from the ground up.

How do I know if this is the right level for me?
Choose the cohort that suits your schedule. We assess everyone early on and will support you at the right pace. Many people are more capable than they think.

Why is this age-restricted (18–29)?
Our subsidised training is funded by grants, and the funders set the eligibility criteria. At the moment, they require that places go to people aged 18–29.

We know this may be disappointing. The funded range used to be 18–25, and we secured an extension to 18–29 so more people could access opportunities. We continue to advocate for wider access when future funding allows.

What will I learn?
Radio & podcast production, presenting, interviewing, editorial skills, studio practice, creative development, and content creation — all hands-on inside a working FM station.

Where does training take place?
All sessions run at Reprezent’s studios in Elephant & Castle.

When does it run?
Sessions run 1 evening per week, weekday 18:30–20:30. You’ll confirm which weekday works for you after booking, and we’ll place you in the earliest cohort that fits your availability.

Will I get on-air experience?
Yes, through structured volunteering pathways after training. On-air or production roles depend on readiness, commitment and standard, not automatic placement.

Do you guarantee industry opportunities?
No guarantees — but you’ll have access to mentoring, festivals, events, industry introductions and a clear pathway into Reprezent.

Do I need any equipment?
No. Everything you need is provided. If you want to create at home, we’ll guide you on low-cost, beginner-friendly options.
