Introductory online classes on using the MethodKit to design and produce podcasts

ABU Media Academy hosts a webinar “MethodKit for Podcasts” developed by DW Akademie.

Podcasting is an art, and like any craft, it requires the right tools. So, whether you’re an audio pro or just starting out, the MethodKit for Podcasts developed by DW Akademie and MethodKit can be used across every aspect of your podcast — from development to production to distribution to marketing or from audience growth to content ideation and more.

In this session, you’ll learn how to use this new analogue and digital tool, as well as find out more about its development and how it’s being used globally.

The MethodKit for Podcasts was developed in collaboration with leading podcast experts from around the world and includes 61 cards designed to help you and your team discuss, map, plan, ideate & prioritize your podcast journey. The kit has been translated into 40+ languages.
