Broadcast Training Day
This 1 day course is presented for a fixed price at your premises. The 1-day training plan has been put together to provide a cost effective way to address the often overlooked basics of the broadcast industry and its technology whilst also having a positive impact on staff morale by encouraging back-office/admin staff to be included in the initial session(s).
All sessions are presenter-led with the 3rd ‘technology primer’ session being a lot less formal with scope for wider discussions and frequent tangential topics. There is no upper limit to the number of attendees for each session but the later technical one is more effective when limited to a maximum of 10 people to allow for questions to be adequately addressed.

About 50% of the exhibitors were IABM members. The 2018 conference theme was ‘Enhancing Multiplatform Content’ and the exhibition layout was revised this year, something that seemed beneficial both in increasing footfall and enhancing useful conversations around the booths. Though he undertook much of the local planning, IABM APAC Director, Peter Bruce, was representing IABM at Convergence India, so IABM Head of Training, Andrew Jones, attended to run the IABM booth as well as presenting four IABM Masterclass sessions, speaking on ‘Packets for Pictures: Live IP-based Production’ at the conference and contributing to a panel chaired by Ideal Systems’ Fintan Mc Kiernan.
