Radio Education

Through the CRET (Community Radio Education Training) program, CRES partners with Vancouver Co-op Radio to provide experiential, community-based radio training and education.. Each year, CRES trains hundreds of people from a range of marginalized communities and equips them with the skills needed to produce community radio. These include broadcast, technical and production skills. We have offered this training free or by donation since our inception in 1973. With our permanent home located in the heart of the Downtown Eastside, we are well respected for our work training, broadcasting and supporting marginalized communities. CRES has supported communities from many ethnicities and language groups, including several indigenous communities
