CFUR and CFIS teamed up to conduct ‘Indigenous Radio Broadcast Training for Youth’ in partnership with PGNAETA (Prince George Nechako Aboriginal Employment & Training Assn.) CFUR’s portion of the program wrapped up on March 28th.
A note from our Music Director and lead educator, Grace Hoksbergen:
‘All in all, it was an awesome experience, I learned a lot along the way and am so grateful I was able to participate in this opportunity for CFUR, CFIS, and PGNAETA. I really enjoyed my time with the interns. Ethan, Justice and Sierra were a pleasure to work with! It was a privilege to watch them learn new things and continue to grow their skills to create something even better each time was the coolest part! We learned many different skills such as: digitizing, production, editing, creating posters, interview procedures and etiquette, broadcasting music shows live on air, and finished the program with a live talk show. The interns completed every project we started and went above and beyond with their creativity and passion for radio. If I ever get the chance to do something like this again, it would be such a pleasure :) ‘
