Our Radio students are now producing an NPR-style feature radio program which airs monthly on KSDS Jazz 88. Plus, our TV News students produce an Emmy Award Winning half- hour, weekly news show which airs on ITV, The County Education Channel.

In terms of equipment, we have a fully functioning TV studio on campus equipped with high-definition cameras. We are also home to KSDS-FM Jazz 88, which also broadcasts in high definition. These studios allow our students invaluable hands-on training and experience.

In addition to a wide variety of day courses, we also offer evening classes and on-line distance learning courses for working adults.
