Moray Firth Media Trust

Moray Firth Media Trust (MFMT) was set up in 1999 to meet a demand for training in radio broadcasting. MFMT aims to deliver quality training, short courses and work experience to people who are interested in getting ahead in radio.

The Certificate in Radio Broadcasting is one of a kind: it's the only vocationally based qualification for 'beginner' radio presenters in the whole of the UK. Candidates undertake hands-on work experience in radio broadcasting, which counts towards Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) certification.

"When we started with the certificate we very quickly realised that paper-based portfolios were quite an onerous task. In a radio station much of what we do is verbal and recorded in audio files using the most up-to-date IT. Turnaround is quick. Candidates found the paper-based portfolio system fairly alien in comparison to the type of work we do daily. We decided to use Learning Assistant as this readily matched what we needed."
