Communication: Digital Media Production Certificate (COMM-CC-DIG)

THIS IS A PREVIEW. Curriculum changes for 2025-2026 can continue until the final publication of the Catalog on July 1, 2025.

The Digital Media Production Certificate program provides exposure to up-to-date hardware, equipment and digital software to learn and practice basic video production, TV production, audio recording/podcasting and editing skills.  It is intended for individuals with no or partial media experience who wish to experience hands-on work in the applicable fields of radio/podcasting, television or video production. Students can practice necessary skills for potential employment in various digital media agencies, stations, and social media platforms - especially those that require work in either on-camera/on-mic and/or off-camera/behind-the-scenes. Classes are highly practical and provide significant hands-on opportunities, creative real-world projects, and building a professional media portfolio.

Learning Outcomes:

• Implement creative and interpretive skills through project-based work while scripting, producing, and editing original material for radio, television, video, and social media. 
• Identify and distinguish specific mass media industries, media job roles, and required media skills.
• Plan, generate, and edit written and oral materials for professional media projects.
