Audio Production and AI for Media Creators

Summary of the major changes from the original course plan to the submitted MYH application

1. The course plan has been broadened from tool- and craft-focused content to the full production chain

The application places much stronger emphasis on the entire workflow from recording to final delivery, rather than treating the course mainly as a general course in audio production.

2. AI has become more integrated and less standalone

In the application, AI is treated as a natural part of the production workflow, not as a separate add-on. It is embedded across recording, editing, restoration, generation, optimization, workflow efficiency, and quality assessment.

3. Legal, ethical and professional responsibility aspects have been strengthened

The application gives clearer and stronger emphasis to:

• copyright
  
  
• licensing
  
  
• integrity and privacy-related considerations
  
  
• transparency
  
  
• professional responsibility when using AI-assisted and AI-generated material
  
  

4. Delivery requirements and platform adaptation have become more important

The application is more explicit about:

• delivery standards
  
  
• technical specifications
  
  
• platform-adapted requirements
  
  
• professional delivery according to industry practice
  
  

This is much clearer in the application than in the original course plan.

5. The assessment structure has been rewritten to reflect the application

The application is built around several sub-projects and one final project, rather than a detailed internal structure based on an exact number of LMS-based assessments.

This means the revised course plan needs to reflect the application’s broader project-based assessment model instead of the earlier, more fixed internal format.

6. The entry requirements have been broadened and made more professional

The application defines the target group more broadly as professionals working in:

• media production
  
  
• adjacent fields where audio is a central part of production, communication, or technical workflows
  
  
• public sector contexts where audio or audiovisual content is used professionally
  
  

This is broader and more professionally framed than the original course plan.

7. Items that should not be defining course plan content have been removed or toned down

Some elements in the original course plan should not be treated as defining course content because they are not how the MYH application defines the programme. These include:

• “Teaching language: English”
  
  
• detailed hardware and internet requirements
  
  
• exact software version numbers
  
  
• specific job roles the course leads to
  
  

This is important because the application defines the course through learning outcomes, professional workflow, production chain, AI integration, delivery requirements, and professional responsibility — not through operational details of that kind.

Additional important shift

One more important change is that the application strengthens the course’s post-secondary / higher vocational level by placing more emphasis on the student’s ability to:

• analyse workflows
  
  
• assess quality
  
  
• justify method and tool choices
  
  
• work independently
  
  
• make informed decisions in realistic professional situations.
