Bespoke Training
Well trained engineers can turn their hand to any new technology - which is exactly our attitude to providing training; whatever you need, we can do it!The ongoing technological innovations in Broadcast and the wider Media & Entertainment industry makes defining ‘off-the-shelf’ training courses a challenge.
Every training course, even those ‘off-the-shelf’ ones, is different as the information our trainers are able to present is constantly evolving.
Our team prides itself on staying across the latest technical innovations in broadcast technology including keeping an active eye on the crossover of technologies in adjacent industries such as AV (Audio Visual) and Telecoms. This allows us to create custom courses and tailor sessions to suit every requirement.
If you have a requirement for training on a specific technology or system we are not already across we can schedule the time necessary to research and prepare new content.
Projects where new systems are being introduced or new operational workflows require a team to be trained are a great way to get us involved. Whether it be direct training of users, operational support, writing of documentation and user guides or even Train-the-Trainer sessions, Q3 Media Training can help!

Broadcast Industry & Technology Intro
This 1 or 2 day course 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).
Broadcast Engineering Essentials
3-5 day course covering the fundamentals of broadcast technology that every engineer and technician should know. Attendees of this course will be more confident and able to tackle any new technology challenges they may face is their broadcast systems evolve.
TR-1001 IP Media Networks
This session covers everything you need to know about IP-based networking for Media Production. It covers all the essential network protocols and standards for uncompressed video over IP (SMPTE ST 2022-6 / ST 2110) as well as looking at how to make such systems work through the use of PTP and NMOS specifications.
Practical Introduction to IP Networking
This hands-on 4-day course gives attendees greater confidence in understanding IP networks in a broadcast setting. Starting from the basics, trainees will learn everything they need to know (layer models, VLANs and Routing, TCP/IP, UDP Multicasting, RTP Streaming and more!)
AutoCAD LT for Broadcast Engineers
2-day practical course (or 1-day abridged) covering all the tools and techniques for using AutoCAD LT in a broadcast setting. Focussing primarily on modifying existing broadcast system schematics (i.e. video and audio system diagrams), but also touching on rack layouts & more.
Broadcast Video & Technology for Developers
1 or 2 day course tailored to file and/or live workflows.
What makes Broadcast Video special? This short course is aimed at software developers who are working with solutions for use in broadcast. What are the key technology aspects everyone should know. The basics of Broadcast Video and Audio will be introduced, explaining important topics like interlace and colour sub-sampling (what is 4:2:0!?).
APIs and Web Technologies for Broadcast & Media
This highly practical, hands-on 2-day course introduces the technologies used to support web interfaces, the servers behind them, API (Application Programming Interface) integrations with other systems and data sources, and the security methods used to keep everything safe from attack.
No coding experience is necessary - this course is aimed at staff needing an awareness when working with software teams/vendors
