OSN, in association with twofour54 tadreeb, has announced a two-year partnership to offer a tailored Digital Fundamentals Training Programme. The course will support expertise in digital multi-platform engineering and delivery in the UAE.
Currently, as OSN is in the process of enhancing its services by transiting to high-quality picture and audio broadcasting over digital multi-platforms, the programme has been especially tailored to upskill and support OSN engineers with these improvements.
Vocational training academy twofour54 tadreeb has been selected for OSN’s specific training requirements because of its portfolio of technical courses as well as its relationship with the BBC. The course will be delivered by BBC, which is also twofour54 tadreeb’s partner.
The six courses offered include generic DVB / satellite broadcasting, picture grading, waveform usage, audio monitoring, management and multi-platform media format management. Each of these modules consists of 25 training days and will be run throughout 2012-13 for 66 trainees.
Mike Tomlisson, Training and Development Director, OSN said: “OSN is continually growing and developing its broadcast services with new and improved technologies. In making these transitions into the digital world, it’s absolutely vital that our engineers upgrade their skills and have access to professional training. We’re delighted to be working with twofour54’s tadreeb to deliver tailored Digital Fundamentals Training Programmes. OSN will benefit with improved internal processes and excellence and ultimately increased customer satisfaction.”
Noura Al Kaabi, Chief Executive Officer, twofour54 added: “All of twofour54 tadreeb’s media-related vocational training is developed with employers’ needs as the focus. Similarly, this new Digital Fundamentals Training Programme, in partnership with OSN, is tailored by industry professionals making it highly relevant to professional digital engineers and their employers. Using the latest techniques and technologies, this bespoke training course will foster a new level and depth of skills, targeting engineers that are already highly accomplished in their field.”
