This week ABC kicks off the second year of its ABC On Campus initiative - a program designed to provide students with hands-on experience creating and broadcasting news stories. Graduates from last year's program have since secured jobs at various station affiliates (of CBS, NBC, CNN and ABC) and are now working successfully in the broadcast field across the country, as reported by ABC.
The addition of a sixth college bureau and a fresh pool of aspiring newsroom professionals round out the group eager to access the same Avid industry solutions that the network uses.
ABC has all the news online about the 2009-2010 program. Plus, view student-generated stories to get a sneak peek behind these industry up-and-comers.
