The video below is an introduction to podcasting. It’s about an hour and will help you decide whether or not you want to podcast.

Can't make it to Reno for training in person? No problem! Most podcasts are recorded remotely so this will be a great way to get started and learn how to manage a podcast.
You should take this class if you're SERIOUS about podcasting. This WILL get you podcasting with a plan to continue. If you aren't ready to do that then just wait until you are.
Anyone with a brand or a business will also benefit from this class. Take your business to the next level by extablishing your brand, your message, and your business with a podcast. Direct clients and customers to your podcast for information and take some of the pressure off your phones and email.
Finally, if you're just starting out with a blog, book, or other interest a podcast is a great way to get your message out.
During the workshop you'll:
Learn the basics of good podcasting
Start designing your logo
Learn how to choose your music
Structure the format of your show
Brainstorm your first 10 show ideas or topics
RECORD your first show
EDIT your show
Export your show
Distribute to the major podcast catalogs
Learn how to keep it all going
