Building on ongoing success, when Ballyfermot’s radio students soared at Talk Radio Europe in Marbella via the Erasmus+ program, the momentum keeps building!

This year, Mari Carmen from Talk Radio Europe came to Ballyfermot College, delivering an electrifying week of hands-on workshops.

Our radio and podcasting students went live on Talk Radio Europe, honing their skills in real-time broadcasting. The students also recorded a special show in the Radio Studios of Ballyfermot College for broadcast on St. Patricks Day and St. Brigid’s Day which also features musicians form the Ballyfermot College Traditional Music Course.

Ballyfermot Radio & Podcasting Students also just spent three electrifying weeks over Easter at Big FM and BR2 Pure Gold Radio in Alicante, pushing their broadcast abilities to new heights, where they presented on the Breakfast show each day ad well as their own music shows.

Now, this June, they’re returning on another Erasmus trip to Talk Radio Europe, as well as joining with their new partner, Good Morning Marbella TV.

And the buzz doesn’t stop there— Ballyfermot Campus Deputy Principal Kenneth Rea was also interviewed about the incredible success of Ballyfermot College in a special half-hour feature set to air on the station.

This is more than a course—it’s a global broadcasting journey!

For anyone serious about a future in broadcasting, this is more than a course — it’s your first step into the industry.
