Channel 4 Production Training Scheme Applications Now Open.

Love TV?

Thinking about starting a career in production?

Channel 4 Production Training Scheme Applications Open.

Channel 4's Production Training scheme provides an amazing opportunity for people to take their first steps into TV Production. 

Production Training Scheme

The Channel 4 Production Training Scheme is for entry level talent who want to break into the media industry and are passionate about making television programmes. In 2021/22 we will be offering paid places at one of the UK's independent production companies for 12 months. Our first cohort will open for applications in January with opportunities available across the UK in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Belfast, Cardiff, North Wales and Glasgow.

Applicants applying for this scheme may already have a degree in Film and Television (or related) or have some previous experience of the television industry through running, work experience or short term placements, but no more than 3 months. 

The scheme aims to offer opportunities to those currently underrepresented in the TV industry, so we are particularly keen to hear from disabled people, people from a Black, Asian and minority ethnic background and people from lower socio-economic groups who are from or currently living/working in the locations listed above.

If successful, you’ll spend a week in TV Boot Camp to get things underway. Here, you’ll hear from graduates of the scheme and Commissioning Editors who’ll give you the lowdown on what it takes to succeed. Then your career in TV starts for real at your production company - but we’ll still see you once a month for training to help your further your career.
