I just finished my first year of Radio Broadcasting at SAIT. I will let you know that you're in for a world of fun. The course is amazing, they teach you every aspect about radio. From on air, to producing, to writing.
I went into the course thinking I was going to be the best Sports Broadcaster in the business. That is, until the first time I had to do an on air shift. Now, I'm thinking I might enjoy being behind the scenes, either producing commercials or even writing them. Either way, the odds of landing a solid gig right away as a sports broadcaster are very slim.
My advice is to sign up to do the broadcasts of the SAIT Trojans hockey games, I was the first one to sign up and I loved the experience that those games gave me.
Feel free to send me an email, and I will answer any questions that you might have. Plus, I will give you all kinds of tips that will help further your career.
Look forward to meeting you Beerfest..
Jesse
