Pursuant to these requirements, a television station employment unit that employs five or more full-time station employees must file a full and complete Broadcast Mid-Term Report.

WE ARE INTERVIEWING STUDENTS FOR THE SUMMER AND FALL 2009 FOR TELEVISION, RADIO, DEVELOPMENT AND WEB INTERNSHIPS AND HOPE TO HIRE SEVERAL SHORTLY.

#8 WNIN EMPLOYEES PARTICIPATE IN ONGOING JOB TRAINING. MANY EMPLOYEES ATTEND SEMINARS, WORKSHOPS AND CONFERENCES TO FURTHER DEVELOP THE SKILLS NEEDED FOR THEIR POSITIONS AND ENABLE THEM TO PERFORM OTHER JOBS OF INTEREST. OUR VP OF DEVELOPMENT ATTENDED THE DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE IN OCTOBER 2008 TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS THAT HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL AT OTHER STATIONS TO HELP OUR DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT. OUR DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND GENERAL MANAGER ATTENDED PBS SHOWSTOP TO ASSIST IN STRATEGIC AND LONG-TERM PLANNING FOR THE STATION. MANY EMPLOYEES ALSO ATTENDED LOCAL SEMINARS AND TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES TO FURTHER ENHANCE THEIR SKILLS AND JOB PERFORMANCE, SUCH AS GRANT WRITING, READY TO LEARN, AND FINANCE AND HUMAN RESOURCE TOPICS. WE PROMOTED A PART-TIME EMPLOYEE TO A FULL-TIME POSITION IN THE SAME DEPARTMENT, FROM AUCTION ASSISTANT TO AUCTION/EVENTS MANAGER.

#12 LISTING EACH UPPER-LEVEL CATEGORY OPENING IN A NEWSLETTER OF MEDIA TRADES WHOSE MEMBERSHIP INCLUDES SUBSTANTIAL PARTICIPATION OF WOMEN AND MINORITIES. WE LISTED THE VP OF RADIO POSITION IN CURRENT, A NATIONAL NEWSPAPER STRICTLY FOR PUBLIC TELEVISION AND PUBLIC RADIO, WHOSE SUBSCRIBERS INCLUDE STATIONS WITH MANY WOMEN AND MINORITY EMPLOYEES, AND ALSO USED A NATIONAL SEARCH & RECRUITMENT FIRM THAT SPECIALIZES IN HELPING PUBLIC BROADCASTERS FILL UPPER-LEVEL OPENINGS. BOTH TELEVISION OPENINGS WERE LISTED ON NEWJOBTREE.COM, A LOCAL WEBSITE TO POST OPENINGS IN THE TRI-STATE AREA, THAT IS RUN BY A LOCAL TELEVISION STATION AFFILIATE OF A NATIONAL NETWORK.
