Internship Program--(Initiative #5):
The stations WLTV-23 and WAMI-69 have an internship program, which allows college
students to gain experience in their field of study. For example, in the News Department, interns
sit in the assignment desk, go on stories with Reporters & Photographers, and learn the day to
day tasks of Producers, Writers and Editors. In the Public Affairs Department, interns learn how
to produce and write a script for a story and in the Promotions Department, they learn how to
produce promos and commercials. The program had students from Florida International
University, Florida State University, Miami Dade College, Connecticut School of Broadcasting,
and St. Thomas University. Since September15th, 2012, the stations have had 12 interns from
the above-mentioned institutions participate in internships at the stations.
Scholarship Programs--(Initiative #7):

attending Miami-Dade and Broward accredited colleges and universities who are
majoring in Communications/Broadcasting with a concentration in Television. The
station is actively involved in reviewing applications, interviewing the potential
recipients and selecting the awardees. In 2013, six students received scholarships totaling
$17,500. The students were from Miami Dade College (3), the University of Miami (2),
Florida International University (2), and Barry University (2).
2. The stations have developed a comprehensive program known as “Orgullo de Nuestra
Juventud” (Pride of our Youth) to foster academic success in local Hispanic youth. The
program contains many on-air elements, and culminates at an awards luncheon hosted by
our on-air talent and attended by managers and employees from all station departments.
Station personnel attending the event mingle with students and parents and discuss their
careers in the broadcasting industry. The Academic Excellence/Community Service
Award is open to South Florida and Broward high school students who have achieved a
high GPA and demonstrated an outstanding commitment to civic duty and community
service. The Academic Achievement Award is open to South Florida and Broward high
school students who have demonstrated academic growth in spite of significant
limitations and/or challenges, rather than the attainment of a specific GPA. Ten students

certificates totaling $1,500.
3. The stations have partnered with Papa John’s Pizza and Nova Southeastern University to
recognize outstanding South Florida teachers with “Un Maestro Especial” (A Special

the call of duty and have a distinct and profound impact on students. Part of this process
is to create a video profiling the winning teachers and their students. This video is
created by our station crew with the help and involvement of the students and teachers.
Students and teachers acquire basic familiarity in video production and can witness part
of what it takes to be a producer and photographer at a television station. In 2012, the 10
winners, selected from over 100 applications submitted by students, parents and
professional colleagues, were from South Miami Senior High, Miami Coral Park Senior
High, Miami Central Senior High School, Chaminade-Madonna College Preparatory,
