Distance Learning
Welcome to the CBA's distance learning section.
Every year we run courses covering different aspects of broadcasting, from production training to management skills.
For more information please contact the CBA Director of Training, Jas Dhariwal.
Current Distance-Learning Courses:
CBA / UNESCO Broadcasting Regulation for Regulators
(Late June 2010, Six Weeks)CBA / Thomson Foundation Intermediate Television Production
(July 2010, Six Weeks)Self-Directed Courses
The CBA is launching two new self-directed online courses following the success of the Introduction to Change Management Course. The courses are now available online for staff in CBA member stations. The self-directed courses will be based on content from previous introductory distance learning courses - with reworked tasks and video introductions.
These Self Directed courses are not tutor led and are available throughout the year. There are 4 modules to each course.
The self directed courses available are:
- Introduction to Radio Production This course will focus on interviewing, writing and production skills for radio journalists. Over the modules journalists are expected to develop the “must have” basics skills of Radio production in writing dispatches, conducting interviews, making packages, planning programmes and extending their knowledge in programming.
- Introduction to Web Production As part of the move towards greater integration between traditional media and new digital media, this course will give Radio and TV producers a better understanding of potential and the most effective use of the web and other appropriate interactive technology to best benefit audiences.
- Introduction to Change Management The course introduces broadcasters to the concepts of change management and performance management. Areas covered include the basics of common attitudes to change; communication techniques; performance management and appraisal systems.
Access to these courses is only available via a secure log in and password and the course is free for CBA member station staff.
If you are interested in any of the above courses please fill in the application form, and select the course you wish to part take in. If you require further information please email mandy@cba.org.uk
