What is the Beasley Radio Talent Institute?
• The Beasley Radio Talent Institute is an intense 10-day program held on the campus of Emerson College in Boston, MA in partnership with National Radio Talent System.
• National Radio Talent System is the only program of its kind in the world. It’s a system of Radio Talent Institutes on college campuses across America. Its mission is to discover, coach and nurture entry-level talent for the industry.
• National Radio Talent System brings approximately 40 broadcast professionals to the Beasley Radio Talent Institute to teach interactive sessions. Over the ten days you will personally learn from them, meet, mingle, and network with them. It could take years to meet and build relationships with these many broadcasters otherwise.
• Broadcast professionals from almost every aspect of the radio industry lead sessions; on-air, sales, digital, sports, podcasting, news, production, management, marketing, videography, programming, social media, engineering, etc. There is no other way to meet this many broadcast decision makers and influencers in just ten days.
• After completion of the Beasley Radio Talent Institute, you are highlighted on the National Radio Talent System website to broadcasters regionally and nationally.
• Approximately 70% of students who attend the Beasley Radio Talent Institute get their first job in broadcasting or related field after graduation.
• We often get the question, “Can I do an internship and the Beasley Radio Talent Institute over the same summer?” The answer is yes. You don’t have to choose one or the other. To date, every radio station has allowed their interns to break away from the internship for ten days to participate in Radio Talent Institutes.
• All college students, graduate students, and recent graduates from all universities, and part timers at radio stations are welcomed and accepted. A total of 25 students are accepted on a rolling acceptance, so the earlier you apply, the better your chances.
