Trainees must observe four hours of live broadcast in the studio, half of which must be with a board member present. Two training classes follow, which cover station policies and the operation of all the equipment. Trainees are then ready for testing. There is a straightforward written exam consisting of twenty-five factual questions. This is followed by a practical test, during which the DJ demonstrates mastery of all the little things that make music come out of your radio.
People passing both tests can then pick slots or substitute for absent DJs.
Training is conducted at the beginning of both semesters and Winter Study. For further information contact our Personnel Director, Adam Schreiber.
