HOW it works ?
Every module is delivered LIVE online by your head coaches Simon Baggs and Meshel Laurie. Course kicks off 19th February 2024 and runs for five weeks.
Every lecture is followed by a LIVE Q&A session with Simon and Meshel where you’ll get answers and additional feedback to help you handle the course curriculum.
You’ll be added to The Audio College closed Facebook group which is a forum for sharing experiences, so you, your classmates, Simon and Meshel can add new ideas and tips along the way.
Simon will share video walkthroughs for the more technical aspects of podcasting including specific software and equipment guides
Most importantly, Simon and Meshel are more than your coach – they are your podcasting mentors – and The Audio College isn’t a series of recorded vids or one-way lectures: it’s a LIVE community and we want you to be a part of it.
Simon and Meshel combine their creative and data strategies to bring the most comprehensive podcast course available today.
The Audio College is the only podcast course that is run by current successful podcasters with global audiences and tech experience. Simon and Meshel are there to pass on their up to date and deep understanding of the podcast medium through the 5 week LIVE course.
