Vice-President, Education and Community Engagement
I work on all the education and outreach projects for the Southern California PBS Station.
The best part of my job is working with the community organizations we partner with and reaching out to the families, teachers, and students they support. I train teachers and parents. I attend meetings to plan for projects and then I work to execute those projects. I work with an amazing team! I get to bring the fantastic PBS KIDS resources out to the community everyday in so many ways.
Here's the first step for college students
Anyone looking to work in Education in public media should pursue a degree in Education or Communications. You will need some experience in a classroom setting (doesn't mean you have to teach).
"You should stay in the classroom even though you might not want to since it is a good job or you should go back to the classroom (once I left)."
