Tait Radio Academy provides new course

The Tait Radio Academy has added a new course that examines best practice for radio users.

The course focuses on end-user training for connecting and communicating clearly, safely and efficiently on radios. It is designed for users in all industries.

It is essential that mission-critical radio users have good training. Using a radio properly brings the following benefits:

  • Increased safety through quick and clear communication
  • More efficient operations
  • More available time for others to communicate
  • Less frustration for users in general

Despite this, many users get little to no training on the proper etiquette and principles of using a radio properly. This short course will examine how to use the radio; tips and tricks for efficient, clear communication; how to be considerate of others on the network; and how to ensure the radio stays working.

Lesson one will explore when to press the push-to-talk (PTT) button, when to speak and how to perform regular radio checks to ensure you always stay connected. Lesson two will focus on how to keep communications clear and efficient, and lesson three will provide an assessment for attendees to earn a Tait Radio Academy completion certificate in Best Practice for Radio Users.
