Stories shape brands, communities, movements, careers, and conversations. Podcasting is one of the most powerful tools available today to share those stories in a meaningful way.

The Podcast Launch Lab is a one-week, immersive, in-person experience delivered in partnership with the School of Journalism and Communication at Carleton University. Participants learn directly in professional audio recording and editing studios while developing the skills to create impactful, professional-quality podcasts.

This program is designed for anyone interested in using storytelling as a tool; whether that’s to educate, build community, grow a brand, amplify voices, share expertise, or create compelling content.

Ideal for:

• Emerging professionals exploring media, journalism, communications, or digital storytelling
• Educators and storytellers sharing ideas, research, or lived experiences
• Content creators expanding into podcasting and professional audio production
• Community organizers and nonprofits engaging audiences and amplifying voices
• Marketing and communications teams using podcasting for brand storytelling and audience engagement
• Business leaders and executives building thought leadership and extending their professional voice

Participants will explore podcast strategy, storytelling, recording, editing, branding, distribution, and launch planning — all through a hands-on studio experience.
