Enroll in COM 141 and COM 142,  where you'll be trained in the use of broadcast equipment and operation and will be assigned a regular on-air shift at WPCD FM. Receive hands-on training in creating and editing audio files. Use programs such as Adobe Audition, Wide Orbit, and Natural Music.

My portfolio has been made entirely from my work at WPCD with great coaching and experience in what future employers are looking for. I feel confident and prepared for a position in my field. — Austen Pontious, Parkland Broadcasting Student
