Podcast Engineering School (PES) solves a big problem in today’s podcasting industry – there are not enough professional podcast engineers/producers to properly serve employers, businesses and individuals who want their podcasts to sound good.
PES gives its students all the necessary skills and knowledge (and drastic software discounts) to make them the absolute BEST editors / engineers / producers in the entire podcasting industry – rock solid professionals who can handle any situation. Graduates will have an unfair advantage in the world of podcast production; they’ll be able to start or grow their own production company, or join a company as an employee. In fact, many high school and college students are already earning really good money editing podcasts part time instead of working at Starbucks. It’s nice to be a respected professional at the highest level and always be in demand.

Podcasting is now an accepted and proven content marketing channel just like blogging and social media. That means lots of companies, organizations, authors, etc. are jumping in and starting their own podcasts. Consequently, more and more podcast production companies are emerging all over the place as well as companies who are hiring podcast engineers to produce podcasts for them in-house.
There’s a problem here though – most individuals who edit/produce podcasts have very weak audio skills, knowledge and software. And no school exists to provide the highest level of podcast production training – until now

It’s working for me and many others. I’m Chris Curran, founder of PES. For the past 10+ years I’ve been engineering/producing podcasts for companies and authors. When Forbes was looking to hire an engineer/producer in 2016 for their podcast network, I was one of 7 people under consideration. In the end my professional credentials are what got me the contract even though I was the most expensive option for them! Think about that…
Podcast Engineering School is the only “fast track” available today — there are no YouTube or Udemy shortcuts to becoming a professional. Besides, how much is your time worth? In only 7 weeks you’ll be in the top 1 percent of podcast engineers/producers in the entire world (in terms of knowledge, skills and workflows)!
I’m Chris Curran, founder and lead instructor of Podcast Engineering School. I began working in audio years ago doing music production and audio engineering. For years I had the honor of making records with famous artists and accumulating lots of album credits.
Since entering the world of podcasting in early 2012, I realized that most podcasters and podcast editors have very little or no audio engineering skills, which virtually cripples the quality of their sound from the very beginning. That’s why I opened Podcast Engineering School.
I feel grateful (and totally psyched!) to be able to elevate the quality of our students lives and careers.
If you’d like to chat with me about your future in podcast production, please contact me and we’ll set up a time to talk.
Sound great!
