Volunteer Announcer Training Program

Volunteer Announcer Training Program

The Classical Station is seeking individuals for its Volunteer Announcer Training Program, which provides qualified participants a valuable education in broadcasting techniques. Announcer trainees will attend a series of in-person announcer training sessions covering proper technique, as well as the operation of our broadcast studio equipment and 100,000 watt transmitter. Candidates should have a good voice and clear diction. Prior experience is a plus, but not required. Air shifts for fully trained volunteer announcers will primarily be available evenings and weekends.

To begin, applicants should submit a resume. Candidates who move forward in the process will undergo an in-person interview, and must pass an announcer audition, where they will receive instruction from a member of the WCPE Programming team. Those who pass the audition will be accepted into our volunteer announcer training program, a series of six two-hour classes, beginning on a weeknight to be determined later, and held between 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Classes will be conducted at WCPE Studios, 1928 Chalk Rd. between Wake Forest and Rolesville.
