I took the Television option through SAIT, and the best part for me ended up being the fact that those years counted towards two years of a Communications degree at the UofC (I think it's called a 2+2 program). I know the radio program worked the same way, but things may have changed over the last 7-8 years. Anyways, I was working in the television industry part-time right out of SAIT so I decided to stick with the schooling and got my degree as well. About a year after I graduated from UofC I decided I was done with television, and my degree opened the door to an entirely new industry. I'm not saying you need a degree, but it's nice that it's available through the SAIT course should you decide to go back to school.
