(December 14, 2006 --NEW YORK--BUSINESS WIRE) Prism Business Media’s Broadcast Engineering® magazine today introduced a new series of specialized Web-based training courses for broadcast engineers and operations staff. Developed in conjunction with OBOR Digital, the courses are designed to introduce new technology, solutions and operations to younger staff members, while provide more experienced staff members with a structured and thorough review of these topics.
Detailed information on the new offerings is available at http://preview.broadcastengineering.com/webcast/best/ .
The initial set offerings includes the following:- IT for the Broadcast Engineer (Part 1) - An introductory tutorial focused on the use of IT-based technology in a television, broadcast, satellite or network facility.
- Waveform Monitors - An introductory course for master control, production and network engineers and operators, covering training in proper use of waveform monitors.
- Vectorscopes - An introductory-level course designed to instruct operators and engineers on the proper use of vectorscopes and key measurements.
- Fiber Optics for Broadcast Engineer (Part 1) - This course covers basic principles of fiber optic transmission, its advantages for video transmission and key terminology.
“Today, it’s critical for broadcasters to stay on top of rapidly changing technology. The technical challenges of HD and new multiformats place new demands on staff skills and can lead to costly on-air mistakes,” said Jonathan Chalon, publisher of Broadcast Engineering. “Web-based training is time and cost-efficient, and our new courses are filled with practical, real-world information. The equation is simple – training doesn’t cost; it pays.”
Each one-hour course is a self-paced, complete program accessible from any computer with Web access. Training modules include multiple sections covering each key aspect of the course, with both audio and visual presentations. Animated graphics increase comprehension and retention, and the training may be started and stopped according the student’s schedule.
All courses are prepared by industry experts and former broadcast consultants, who understand, based on their own experience, what’s required to operate production rooms, master control centers, newsrooms and network facilities.
Additional information on all courses can also be obtaining by calling Jonathan Chalon, at (203) 966-0686, or emailing jchalon@prismb2b.com
