Subject: Time Sensitive - YES Digital Media Training Program
Hi Quibila,
Below is a message that I received from the CTCNet listserv (another
listserv that I donated) that mentioned a very interesting program by
YESPhilly.org. It is called the Digital Media Training Program and
I think that it might be something that our parents are interested in.
So rather than send this to the internetparents listserv myself, I
thought that I would forward it to you first.
I talked to Jeanne Anderson and she is looking for 8 to 10
individuals who dropped out of high school. They would have to
interview, but once accepted, the training is free.
Since it is only a couple of individuals, this might be time sensitive.
I am also CCing Jeanne if you want to contact her. I also gave her your
contact information.

>>through internships, work readiness and education services.
>>
>>The DMTP is for low-income Philadelphia residents, ages 17-21, who are
>>unemployed and do not have a high school diploma, or are unemployed
>>with a diploma, but not currently enrolled in school. The DMTP is an
>>18-week program. Eligible students can come in during the enrollment
>>period to sign up. The deadline for enrollment for the next training
>>program cycle is March 13, 2006, and then every
>>8 weeks after that.
>>
>>Students are required to help out with equipment set up so be prepared
>>to so some light physical labor! In the field of Digital Media
>>Production, everyone has to pitch in and help.
>>
>>Here's how the program works. There are 3 phases of the program:
>>

>>winning video editing program is Apple's Final Cut Pro. Most movie
>>and TV editors use this program. During the last four weeks (Phase 3)
>>youth will practice using the official Final Cut Pro 5 Certification
