Radio Broadcasting

How do you decide whether a course is worth taking? Do you base it on unique and priceless insights from experienced industry professional instructors? Maybe it just looks like a lot of fun and a chance to meet 'like-minded people'. Does it have peerless and state-of-the-art facilities? Of all the reasons to put your faith in a course, surely the most enticing is the success of the graduates who came before you? Point Blank's radio course has given rise to literally hundreds of radio professionals: it's not unusual for 100% of a class to find employment in the radio industry. Our alumni includes Gemma Cairney (Radio One, Channel 4), Monki (Rinse FM, Radio One, 1Xtra), Josh Dowler (Radio One), Madam X (1Xtra), Mistajam (Radio One) and many more.
