Media Arts - Broadcasting - Television Production

2-year, Ontario College Diploma Program

Official Program Information

Broadcasting - photo banner

Some people "watch television". Some people "make television". If you want to be one of those who "makes television" then this is the program for you. 

Whether you’re interested in creating commercials, music videos, documentaries, news and sports, or you have a script idea that is just waiting to be developed, this two-year program will set you on the right path. We work hard to foster a “culture” that allows our students to explore their creativity while developing the necessary skills and attitudes of the trade.

You will receive intensive hands-on training in our 4,300 square foot media complex and the small teacher-tostudent ratio guarantees that you will not get lost in the crowd. You will have a chance to try it all - studio, location and mobile production, camera work and editing, announcing, journalism, photography, production and scripting, writing and access to our facilities 24-7.

The four-week internship at the end of the second year will allow you to gain valuable work experience, helping you to land that important fi rst job. Our students distinguish themselves on a regular basis by winning national awards for their production work. We are proud of what they accomplish. We invite you to study with us.

NEW! Coming in the Fall 2012, Web-Radio!

Radio will take on a new meaning in our web-based radio station with the inclusion of HD robotic cameras.

Have an idea? Want to be part of creating content for the web-radio station? Apply to the Broadcasting TV Production program where you’ll have the opportunity to be trained using the latest technology as well as create content.

If you would like further information or a tour, please contact the Program Coordinator.
