Hello there! I was just doing a press release about this, and I thought the good folks on here might like to know about it? It's a nice opportunity, and you're welcome to pass it around friends or family, so long as they're 18-27 and live in Edinburgh. I'll log on and off the forum for the next few weeks in case anyone has any questions.

Free day's media training with Radio Forth.

Forth One are teaming up with Lothian and Borders Police to do a series of free one-day media courses, giving participants the chance to create an advert which will be broadcast on the station.

The events, initially aimed at 18-27 year old men living in Edinburgh, will give participants the chance to learn from leading industry professionals about radio production, presenting, journalism and interviewing.

As well as learning a range of new skills, participants will have the chance to enhance their CVs and take home a greater understanding of the media.

Chief Superintendent Malcolm Graham, Commander for the City of Edinburgh, said:

"Young men in this age group are notoriously difficult to reach but they are one of our most important audiences, which is why we are trying this innovative method of communication.

"For us, it's an opportunity to increase awareness of our campaigns on a grassroots level.

"For the participants, it’s the chance to try out new skills in a professional working environment."
Courses will held at Radio Forth on Saturday 27th October and Friday 2nd November (10am - 4pm). Apply by emailing your name, age and address to [email protected]
