Clyde Broadcasts work with the Kenyan Institute of Education (KIE)  was given the ultimate seal of approval during the recent visit of Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki.

KIE have been at the forefront of educational development in Africa since its inception in 1968. It has pioneered new teaching initiatives in Languages, Mathematics, Science and more recently IT and Network Technologies.

When embarking on a Digital Radio Project aimed at using radio broadcasting as a means to spread educational materials and create avenues for vocational training KIE selected Clyde Broadcast to develop an integrated 360 degree technology solution for the organisation.

Using the Synergy Integrated Broadcast Centre as the radio studio technology Clyde designed, manufactured, installed and delivered training programmes to KIE staff.

The system was inspected by the President during his opening of the facility and it was well received by the head of state and his entourage. He even took the opportunity to participate in the broadcast as a special guest.

The staff at KIE were able to use the advanced ARCs routing system to seamlessly break from live to pre-record modes without missing a beat.
