Work Experience

If it’s your dream to work in TV, this is your chance to start making that dream come true!

We are delighted to announce the re-launch of our Virtual Work Experience Platform, after a fantastic year in 2023, which saw 2,000+ people undertake the programme.

Learn in your own time, and complete true-to-life tasks, set by our teams across Channel 4. This programme will be open to anyone 14+ years old, based in the UK and interested in gaining an in-depth understanding of the UK media industry.
