To get started with CJSF 90.1FM Radio you should register with our volunteer portal called Better Impact.

If you are new to CJSF, you will need to create and account and fill out and application form where you can tell us about your interests and experience. If you have used Better Impact before with other organizations you will have an account already.

Once you have completed your application, you should sign up for an Orientation for New Volunteers. This can be found under the Opportunities tab as Administration - Volunteers - CJSF New Volunteer Orientation. At the Orientation you will learn more about CJSF, about the different volunteering opportunities that exist and how to get involved in different areas of the station. 

Station Orientations are:

• 1st Friday of the month @ 1:30pm
• 2nd Tuesday of the month @ 4:45pm
• 3rd Thursday of the month @ 6pm
• 4th Monday of the month @ 12noon

The next step is to go through On-Air Training. On-air training is made up of two parts: The Studio Training where you learn how to use the radio studio and the equipment that is in it, and the Rules & Regulations Training on how to stay on the right side of the law and station rules. On-Air Training dates and times are posted in Better Impact of Studio B. You can also email vol4cjsfg@sfu.ca for a list of upcoming on-air training dates.

CJSF also offers Production training, which is an introduction to sound editing using Adobe Audition, SoundForge and Audacity. Production training times and dates are posted in Better IMpact as well. You can also email cjsfprod@sfu.ca for a list of upcoming production training dates. Note: You will not be granted an on-air or production training session until you have completed the station orientation.
