[cma-l] National Diploma in Radio

[Jaqui Devereux]

Dear All

Below a message from Skillset re the new Diploma - some of you might be 
interested in it.

"Further to the interest expressed at the Radio Skills Council, I have 
some further information about the Level 3 National Diploma in Radio

The Level 3 Diploma in Radio has been developed from the refreshed 
National Occupational Standards for Radio. The qualification provides 
the opportunity for the learner to take a pick and mix of units or focus 
on developing their role in Techical Production, Content Production, 
Content Creation, Production, Research, Commercial Production or 
Presentation. By taking this qualification, learners will be able to 
demonstrate their ability to work at a professional standard in order to 
add value and progress within the industry. The qualification can be 
taken in a Further Education setting or in a work-based learning 
setting, through the Train to Gain iniative. The qualification has been 
developed by employers, for employers, and is flexible enough to be 
tailored to the needs of the business.


Employers are able and encouraged to shape the learner's journey and by 
doing so, will experience a great deal in return.
Employers could have funding to cover costs of training through a Train 
to Gain contract or any similar future funding opportunities

If a learner is 16-18 they could get an education allowance.

Please do disseminate this information throughout your networks, and if 
interested parties wish to initially contact me, I can direct to the 
most appropriate contact within Skillset to pursue their enquiries


With best wishes

Matthew
