In general, you usually need a high school diploma. You may also need a college diploma, university degree or specialized/technical training and experience in your area of work.

You may substitute on-the-job training for formal educational requirements and may need to demonstrate your creative ability through a portfolio of work/experience.

Most recent entrants have a trade/vocational certificate or community college diploma, and almost 3 in 10 have an undergraduate university degree.

Completion of a college program in broadcast technology or electronics is usually required.
