training
Do I need training to get a show on QPTV?
No. Many producers own their own equipment and provide QPTV with completed shows that we cablecast. Non-Queens residents must have a local sponsor.
What happens after training?
Trainees who successfully complete one of QPTV's workshops are entitled to use the equipment in the particular area of certification (e.g. Editing, Studio or EFP).
Is there a fee for training?
QPTV collects a small fee for each workshop. QPTV's equipment, studio and channel time are provided to the community free of charge.
How often is training given & how long does it take?
Training is offered twice a year during the Spring & Fall. Training lasts ten weeks. Classes meet once a week. Each session is three hours long.
Who is eligible to take the training?
Training is provided to all bona-fide residents of Queens who are 18 years of age or older. Applicants must show proof of Queens residency and/or be a staff member of a 501 (c)3 organization based in Queens.
